Texty: Violent Femmes. I Can Change.

some people say that i'm a bad guy
they may be right, they may be wrong
but its not as if I don't try, I just mess up
and I go wrong.

but i can change, i can change
i can learn to keep my promises i swear it
open up my heart and i will dare it.
any minute now i swear i'll change.

oh its strange yes its strange
though i guess its quite clear
i killed the antelope and deer
and there's no home on my range
inside i'm a little deranged but i can change.

its not my fault that i'm so evil
its society, sobriety
ya know my momma picked cotton
and my daddy bull weevil
it was history, it wasn't me.

but i can change i can change
i can learn to keep my promises i know it.
open up my heart and i will show it
any minute now yes yes i will

you'll never change you'll never change
you'll always be a dog with mange

yes but dont be such a fool
manna from heaven shall be my food
my acts of kindness were misconstrued
god above will watch me change
and while i'm changing i'll be changing
i'm gonna change. Soon.

but i can change, i can change
i can learn to keep my promises i swear it
open up my heart and i will dare it any minute now
i swear i'll share it
i am gonna change.
