What's it like to play a part? 
What's it like to have a wooden heart? 
Every word you say is so rehearsed 
You think your clothes and actions control the universe 

Listen, what you'd better do 
Listen, better change your head 
Listen, or there's nothing we can do 
Listen to the one who will change your world 

You're the face upon a playing card 
A colored painted cold visage 
(You're) just a pawn of somebody somewhere 
Only trouble is you're gonna get no-where 

Listen, what you'd better do 
Listen, better change your head 
Listen, or there's nothing we can do 
Listen to the one who will change your world 

What's it like to play a part? 
(You) got a wooden heart 
(You're) just a puppet on a string 
A nothing, a no-one, no style 
(You) just play a part 
(You're) just a pawn of someone somewhere 
And you'll get no-where 

Listen what you'd better do 
Listen, better change your head 
Listen, or there's nothing we can do 
Listen to the one who will change your world 
Gonna change your world 
Gonna change your world
