lyrics

I don't know what I am.
I know I'm still
what I've always been.
But I don't know what I am.

I think I might be an artist.
I used to think
I used to think
that I might be a writer.

But now, I don't think so.
Now, I don't think so.
I think I am just
an artist.

How do you know
what you are?
Do you have a clue?
Did you learn it from a star?

Was it Beyonce
who told you who you are?
Or was it
Kathleen Turner Jones?

I don't know,
exactly what to say,
I thought I might
be something today!

But I'm just me!
And that's what I say:
Get used to it,
because I'm here to stay.

And so, I will rest.
And so, I will smile.
For I may be here for a while.

And so, I will rest.
And so, I will smile.
And so I will return.
And so I will return.

Some people think that they will return
and live another life.
I don't believe that, no I don't.
I will just return to this life.

Changing. Changing!
Changing some more!
I've changed so much,
and I've only just begun!

Changing and changing
and changing some more!
I don't think
I will ever stop.

Because when I stop,
what will be next?
It's not like
I'm planning to ever die.

There's no need for
such foolish things
when I can just
change again.

Change and change
and change some more!
I will be changing
when I'm sixty-four.

Change and change
and change again.
I will be changing
when I'm eighty and ten.

Mr. Beany's Bitty Band image

Mr. Beany's Bitty Band

We're a one-person band fronted by a human who self-describes as a mad artist. We invented the "crapcapella" genre, and remain a proponent, though we now support the term "folk acapella" as well. We love improvised music as well as sheet music.
