Three little birds sat on my window
And they told me i don't need to worry
Summer came like cinnamon, so sweet
Little girls double-dutch on the concrete
Maybe sometimes, we got it wrong, but its alright
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same
Oh, dont you hesitate
[chorus]
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead let your hair down
Sapphire, and faded jeans i hope you get your dreams
Just go ahead, let your hair down
You're gonna find yourself, somewhere, somehow
Blue as the sky
Sun-burnt and lonely
Sipping tea in a bar by the roadside
[Just relax, just relax]
Don't you let those other boys fool you
gotta love that afro hairdo
Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid but it's alright
The more you stay the same
[Ooh]
The more they seem to change
Don't you think it's strange
[chorus](oh, oh)
Just more than i could take
Pity for pity's sake
Some nights kept me awake
I thought that I was stronger
When you gonna realize
That you don't even have to try any longer?
Do what you want to!
[chorus x2]
