Man in the Mirror
I'm gonna make a change
For once in my life
It's gonna feel real good
Gonna make a difference
Gonna make it right
As I, turn up the collar on
My favorite winter coat
This wind is blowin' my mind
I see the kids in the street
With not enough to eat
Who am I, to be blind
Pretending not to see their needs
A summer's disregard
A broken bottle top
And a one man's soul
They follow each other on the wind, ya know
'Cause they got nowhere to go
That's why I want you to know
I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
(If you wanna make the world a better place)
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
(Take a look at yourself, and then make a change)
Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah
I've been a victim of
A selfish kind of love
It's time that I realize
That there are some with no home
Not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me
Pretending that they're not alone
A willow deeply scarred
Somebody's broken heart
And a washed-out dream (washed-out dream)
They follow the pattern of the wind, ya see
Cause they got no place to be
That's why I'm starting with me
I'm starting with the man in the mirror (ooh)
I'm asking him to change his ways (ooh)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
(If you wanna make the world a better place)
Take a look at yourself and then make a change
(Take a look at yourself and then make a change)
I'm starting with the man in the mirror (ooh)
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Change his ways, ooh)
And no message could've been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
(If you wanna make the world a better place)
Take a look at yourself and then make that
(Take a look at yourself and then make that)
Change

I'm asking him to change his ways
(Better change)
No message could have been any clearer
(If you wanna make the world a better place)
(Take a look at yourself and then make the change)
(You gotta get it right, while you got the time)
('Cause when you close your heart)
You can't close your, your mind
(Then you close your, mind)
That man, that man, that man, that man
With that man in the mirror
(Man in the mirror, oh yeah)
That man, that man, that man
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Better change)
You know, that man
No message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place

Take a look at yourself and then make a change
