Frank Wildhorn, Jack Murphy and Ivan Menchell
Change The World
[Light]
It's gotta be a joke, of course
Some fed-up cop who left the force
Or some civilian psychopath
Whose righteous wrath may be the source

(dialogue interlude)

But what would happen if it's true?
Imagine all that I could do
For with such power, I could change
And rearrange the world anew

(dialogue interlude)

If there's the slightest chance it's true
I'll write his name, what else can I do?

[Chorus (spoken)]
Forty...
Thirty-nine...
Thirty-eight...

[Light]
Now maybe justice sure and swift
Will become my clear-cut gift
To a system ripe for saving
Now let the Death Note play its part
And become a work of art
For the justice we're all craving

[Chorus (spoken)]
Four...
Three...
Two...
One...
