Girls have you got the kind of man everyone looks up to
Well if you don`t listen I`ll tell you what to do
Get your man take him by the hand and bring him here to me
And I`m going to tell you about equal opportunity
There was a time when the world was fickle
And it may have been hard to succeed
But times have changed now
And school and training is all you really need
It doesn`t matter who you may be
Everyone`s equal with the same opportunity
Yes things are changing for the better
Things are changing for the better
Now is the time for you to better yourself
Life`s got problems but you can make it
And I`m going to tell you why
Just like the early bird that catches the worm
You gotta get up go out and try
Your race or color won`t stand in your way
Don`t wait for tomorrow today is your day
Yes things are changing for the better
Things are changing for the better
Now is the time for you to better yourself
Good jobs are out there
Things are changing
Just waiting to be found
Things are changing
They don`t come to you oh no
You gotta go up and look around
Things are changing
Your race or color won`t stand in your way
Don`t wait for tomorrow today is your day
Things are changing for the better
Things are changing for the better
Now is the time for you to better yourself
I said things are changing for the better
Things are changing for the better
Things are changing for the better
Things are changing for the better
Things are changing for the better
Things are changing for the better
