Lyrics
Bev will go back to John
Now you just watch
Tim’s really tried
But by half five
He’s back into the Scotch
Hanna’s divorced
She counts 'em on both hands
Ben’s out on bail
But life in jail is
All he understands
Seasons will pass
Icecaps will melt
Prices will rise
Chill will be felt
No crystal ball
Things might get strange
But through it all
People don’t change
Dan donates half his pay
But tells no one
Brad’s building schools abroad
Instead of lying in the sun
Val volunteers
To take kids off the street
Nell is a front-line nurse
She spends 12 hours on her feet
Seasons will pass
Icecaps will melt
Prices will rise
Chill will be felt
No crystal ball
Things might get strange
But through it all
People don’t change
[Instrumental]
People don't change
[Instrumental]
Seasons will pass
Icecaps will melt
Prices will rise
Chill will be felt
No crystal ball
Things might get strange
But through it all
People don’t change
Yes through it all
People don’t change
