    One, two, three, four

    Ooh, ooh
    Waking up too early in the city feeling disconnected
    The underground and my understanding have delays on the line
    The weather and the way we worked out weren't quite as expected (Ooh, ooh)
    I've been melting in the summer heat going out of my mind (Ooh, ooh)

    So far from okay, tongue-tied and afraid (So far from okay)
    The big things stay the same and you just say (Big things stay the same)

    Little changes (Oh, oh, oh)
    Little changes (Oh, oh, oh)

    Giving up too easy when we could've tried a little bit harder
    (When we could've tried, when we could've tried, when we could've)
    Standing to the side as the neighbourhood went to the dogs
    (Standing to the side, standing to the side, standing to the)
    We spend our energy getting angry instead of being kinder
    (Angry, angry, angry, angry)
    Singing hymns of praise in a city given up on by the gods
    (Ba da ba da ba ba baba)

    So far from okay, tongue-tied and afraid (So far from okay)
    The big things stay the same and you just say (Big things stay the same)

    Little changes (Oh, oh, oh)
    Little changes (Oh, oh, oh)
    Little changes (Oh, oh, oh)
    Little changes (Oh, oh, oh)

    'Cause I've been messing things up
    And I've been letting you down
    I've been getting it wrong for far too long
    I've been lost more than found
    And I don't know where to stop (Ooh)
    But something's gotta break (Ooh)
    Don't pull it apart, keep it close to your heart (Ooh)
    I'll do whatever it takes (Aah)

    So far from okay, tongue-tied and afraid (So far from okay)
    The big things stay the same let us make (Big things stay the same ba da ba da ba)

    So far from okay, tongue-tied and afraid (So far from okay)
    The big things stay the same let us make (Big things stay the same)

    Little changes (Oh, oh, oh)
    Little changes (Oh, oh, oh)
    Come on, let's make some little changes (Oh, oh, oh)
    It's time to make some little changes (Oh, oh, oh)

    Let's not just pray (Let's not just pray)
    Let's make a change (Let's make a change)
    Let's not just pray (Let's not just pray)
    Let's make a change (Let's make a change)
    Let's not just pray (Let's not just pray)
    Let's make a change (Let's make a change)
    Let's not just pray (Let's not just pray)
    Let's make a change (Let's make a change)
