[Verse 1]
And though the hard times are really due to me
It still is in me, to wave all this unrest

[Chorus]
Things must stay, there must be no change
Anyway, time to rearrange

[Verse 2]
You must believe that there's been no betrayal
All that I've done, I've really done for you

[Chorus]
Things must stay, there must be no change
Anyway, time to rearrange

[Instrumental Break 1:22–2:03]

[Interlude]
Hail to power and to glory's way
Hail to power and to glory's way

[Verse 3]
Must be a reason why plans have turned around
Not only in me, must also be in you
[Chorus]
Things must stay, there must be no change
Anyway, time to rearrange

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Hail
