about

Written and recorded in Sinop, Turkey in 1989 on a Fostex X15 four-track and mixed to a Pioneer boombox.

lyrics

*****************
Know all, know all, you claim
As you wag your finger and cry "Shame!"
Once again you've changed your name...
Change the world,
Change your mind,
Change for the sake of change.

Strange, seems we've seen it all before.
You've been singing that song since 1984.
Still haven't found what you were looking for...
Look around,
Turn around,
Take it downtown and ask for more.

Competition, thrive on competition,
Competition, live competitively...
Competition, are you a musician
Or an athlete on TV?

Do you really believe the things you say?
I can tell you try to make it seem that way
As you find a way to make it pay...
Scream and shout,
You've sold out.
Come in out of the gamma rays...

Competition, live up to the predictions,
Competition, you take it so seriously...
Competition, 'cause we're all out to get you
And that's the way it has to be...

You're so above it all
As you dispense your point of view...
But can't you see, it's changing too?
Change the world,
Change your mind,
Change before it changes you...

(1989 Nimyonta Music)
