Save yourself

So you want to change the world
go change yourself !
and if you've got it made sometime
look at something else
save yourself

   if we could only give ourselves away
   we wouldn't really be like christians
   if we could give ourselves away

So you've got a friend somewhere
that don't know where it's at
things are really heating up
it'll get much worse than that
save yourself

     if we could only live the love we know
     we wouldn't really be like buddhists
     if we could live the love we know

so you've got a pain in there
and you don't know what to do
take a trip around the world
or go and see Polly Magoo
save yourself

     if we could only break thru' to our own truth
     we wouldn't really be like marxists
     if we could break thru' to our truth

repeat first verse

     if we could be the heart of evensong
     we'd stop being just like tourists
     and we would finally belong
