If you're in old habits
Set in your old ways
Changes are a-comin'
For these are changing daysAnd if your head is in the sand
While things are goin' on
What you need, what you need
What you need is a change of habitNow if you're in the habit
To let your temper fly
When you talk with people
Who don't see eye to eyeAnd if you don't believe it
There's a newer world ahead
What you need, what you need
What you need is a change of habitA change of habit, a change of outlook
A change of heart, you'll be alright
The halls of darkness, have doors that open
It's never too late to see the lightSo if you're in the habit
Putting people down
Just because they're different
From the wrong side of townWell, don't count on any medals, son
They're pinning none on you
What you need, what you need
What you need is a change of habitA change of habit, a change of outlook
A change of heart, you'll be alright
The halls of darkness, have doors that open
It's never too late to see the lightSo if you're in the habit
Of putting people down
Just because they're different
From the wrong side of townWell, don't count on any medals, son
They're pinning none on you
What you need, what you need
What you need is a change of habitChange of habit, hmm, change of habit
Change of habit
