Changing Channels

-----------------

by Jimmy Buffett anf Mac McAnally



Girl of a thousand faces

>From a long line of basket cases

Daughter of a fortune teller

Oh the lovely Isabella



Chorus:

Oh she's changing channels

Stayin' on her toes

She's just changing channels

As she goes



This palce is full of beachhead sailors

Fishermen and old retailers

Simple lives are so deep seated

And history always gets repeated

Some folks see a birds eye view

Others haven't got a clue

Some will go and some will stay

It doesn't matter anyway



Chorus:

They are changing channels

Crazy girls and boys

They'll be changing channels

Changing toys



Survivors of tidal waves

Children of former slaves

Don't it that they behave

Like it's another world



There's an island in the ocean

Where the people stay in motion

Somewhere on the old gulf stream

Do they live or did I dream



Chorus:

They were changing channels

Waitin' for their sails to fill

They'll be changing channels

Always will



They were changing channels

Waitin' for their sails to fill

They'll be changing channels

Always will
