The Flaming Lips
A Change at Christmas (Say It Isn’t So)
[Intro]
Alright, here we go
Hey Andrew, you ready over there, huh?
I'm all set
Hey, Richard, you're good, huh?
I'm ready, man, let's do it, come on
Hey, David, you're good, huh?
I'm feeling good
Mike?
Let's do it
Alright, here we go
Everything's gonna work out just fine
I can see it, I can see it ahead
Alright
Here we go
Here we go

[Verse 1]
I know that everything changes, yeah, it's strange how time marches on
Well, maybe there'll be sometime in the future, oh, tell me (I'm not wrong), tell me I'm not wrong

[Verse 2]
Oh, if I could stop time, it would be a frozen moment just around Christmas
When all of mankind reveals its truest potential
And there is sympathy for the suffering
And there is sympathy for those who are suffering
[Verse 3]
And the world embraces peace and love and mercy instead of power and fear
And as sure as I'm standing here, I swear it really does appear
That a change comes over us
Yes, some kind of change comes over us

[Verse 4]
And it's glimpsed, it's glimpsed for one shining moment
And this change, well, it feels like a change that's real
But then it passes along with the season
And then we, we just go back to the way we were
Yes, we just go back to the way we were

[Verse 5]
And say it isn't so (Say it isn't so)
Tell me I'm not just a dreamer (I'm not just a dreamer)
Tell me 'cause I'm talking with a friend and he knows how it ends, he says it's easier
He says that that's just the way we are
That it's human nature and that's just the way we are and

[Outro]
Say it isn't so (Say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (Say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (Say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (Say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (Say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (Say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so
Say it isn't so (Say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (Say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (Say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (Say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (Say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so
There you go
I think it's all gonna work out just fine
