[Verse 1]
What you gonna do with the thirty-six cents
Sticky with Coke on your floorboard
When a woman on the street is huddled in the cold
On a sidewalk vent, trying to keep warm?
Do you call her over, hand her the change
Ask her her story, ask her her name?
Or do you tell yourself

[Interlude]
"You're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world"
"You're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world"

[Verse 2]
Oh, what you gonna do when you're watchin' TV
And an ad comes on, yeah, you know the kind
Flashin' up pictures of a child in need
For a dime a day, you could save a life
Do you call the number, reach out a hand
Or do you change the channel, call it a scam?
Or do you tell yourself

[Chorus]
"You're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world"
Don't listen to 'em when they say
"You're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world"
Oh, the smallest thing can make all the difference
Love is alive, don't listen to 'em when they say
"You're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change (Change) the world"
[Bridge]
And the world's so big (World's so big), it can break your heart (It can break your heart)
And you just wanna help, not sure where to start
So you close your eyes (Close your eyes)
And send up a prayer into the dark

[Chorus]
"You're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world"
Don't listen to 'em when they say
"You're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world"
Oh, the smallest thing can make all the difference
Love is alive, don't you listen to 'em when they say
"You're just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change (Change) the world"
