The Changeling Lyrics

Uh!
Uha!
Gedu!
I live uptown
I live downtown
I live all around
I had money, and I had none
I had money, and I had none
But I never been so broke
That I couldn't leave town
I'm a Changeling
See me change
I'm a Changelin'
See me...

    A relevant song for today's time also, that's about when a liberal lefty who gradually became broke and abandens Liberalism with a lot of change to spare towards taking the midnight train ride that transformed ''Georgie Porgie'' too just act like an angry sugar-coated fascist now.

    Jim’s adult interpretation of the “this little piggy” nursery rhyme. Grandmother grabs onto each toe on one foot in succession of the toddler, and sings about them thus: “this little piggy went to market, this little piggy stayed home. This little piggy had roast beef, this little piggy had none. And this little piggy went wee wee wee all the way home.”

    Some rock songs of the 60's were just that...a song. We don't always need to look for some mystical, spiritual, in depth analysis. The Changling was about everybody and nobody. Hence...we change in life.

    I believe that it means that he is nothing yet everything at the same time. That there are different people with different back grounds and views, either way you can be anything you want to be and no matter what happens, things always are changing.
