Something's going on, a change is taking place Children smiling in the street have gone without a trace This street used to be full, it used to make me smile And now it seems that everyone is walking single file
[Pre-Chorus 1] And many bow their heads in shame That used to hold them high And those that used to say hello Simply pass you by
Think for a minute (think for a minute) Stop for a minute (stop for a minute) Think for a minute (think for a minute) Stop for a minute (stop for a minute)
I always said it could, they never thought it would The people look so pitiful, I'm thinking that it should And now it's almost here, now its on its way I can't help saying told you so and have a nice final day
[Pre-Chorus 2] 'Cause nothing I could say Could ever make them see the light Now apathy is happy that It won without a fight
Think for a minute (think for a minute) Stop for a minute (stop for a minute) Think for a minute (think for a minute) Stop for a minute (stop for a minute)
[Pre-Chorus 3] And many drop their heads in shame (think for a minute) That used to hold them high (stop for a minute) And those that used to say hello (think for a minute) Simply pass you by (stop for a minute)
Think for a minute (think for a minute) Stop for a minute (stop for a minute) Think for a minute (think for a minute) Stop for a minute (stop for a minute)
