Matt Monro lyrics : "We're Gonna Change The World"

Shirley Wood gulped down her breakfast
Shut the fridge and joined the throng
Margaret Beatty snatched the milk in

Scanned the news and went along

Annie Harris drew the curtains

Screwed her eyes up, had a peep
Saw the marchers, heard their voices
Making early morning noises

Stumbled back to bed and tried to sleep

Come with us, run with us

We're gonna change the world
You'll be amazed, so full of praise
When we've rearranged your world

We're gonna change your world

Shuffling through the cold black morning

Went the marchers, spirits low
Grunting greetings, grimly pressing
Onto where they had to go


When the sun came up, they brightened
Stopped to have their thermos brew

Annie Harris got up gladly
Pondered for a little, sadly
Then got on with what she had to do


So, come with us, run with us
We're gonna change the world

You'll be amazed, so full of praise
When we've rearranged your world
We're gonna change your world


At their target, numbers swollen
'Up the marches', banners go

Chanting, shouting out with leaflets
Protest for everyone to know


Sit in front of all the traffic
Harried, busy shopping wives
Try to stir their ostrich notions

Whip them up to wild emotions
Put some fire into their wretched lives


So, come with us, run with us
We're gonna change your world
You'll be amazed, so full of praise

When we've rearranged your world
We're gonna change your world


Shirley Wood was dragged still sitting
By a policeman from the road
Margaret Beatty had her face slapped

By a man she tried to goad

Annie Harris in the office

Paused in typing, thought of Don
Glanced again at his last letter
Died for others to live better

Brushed away a tear and carried on

Come with us, run with us

We're gonna change the world
You'll be amazed, so full of praise
When we've rearranged your world

We're gonna change...
Come with us, run with us
We're gonna change your world

You'll be amazed, so full of praise
When we've rearranged your world
We're gonna change...

So, come with us, run with us
We're gonna change your world
You'll be amazed, so full of praise

When we've rearranged your world
We're gonna change...
