Change
A change is as good as a rest
and the Leopard can’t change his spots
A change in the weather
is like changing your socks
You can change your tune
and change your mind
Now isn’t that strange
The only thing inevitable
is change

I love that first line, which makes me think of the “rest” in music…often offered before a big change up.
