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
