[Verse 1]
It ain't mine
It ain't yours
But I'm here
I ain't goin' anywhere
It ain't his
It ain't hers
It's for all
Is that somethin' we can learn?

[Chorus]
It's time we stop all the hatin'
Let's start today
Go find a way to change the world
Gotta change the world
Go change the world
Gotta change this world

[Verse 2]
Well, do ya care
'Bout what's fair?
It don't matter
As long as you get your share
Now I see
Disparity
What needs to be
Hell, it isn't charity

[Chorus]
It's time we stop all the fightin'
Let's start today
Go find a way to change the world
Gotta change this world
Go change the world
Gotta change this world

[Bridge]
I dare ya
Are ya scared?
I dare ya
Are ya scared?
Whoo

[Chorus]
It's time we stop all the hatin'
Let's start today
Go find a way to change the world
Gotta change the world
Go change the world
Gotta change this world

[Outro]
Can you change the world?
Gotta change this world
Go change the world
Gotta change this world
Damn man
We might never get it

Joan Jett & The Blackhearts

After splitting with The Runaways, and releasing her first solo album, Joan Jett placed an ad in LA Weekly looking for bandmates. Gary Ryan, Eric Ambel, and Danny “Furious” O'Brien joined her, creating the orginial Blackhearts lineup.

After their initial tour though, O'Brien was replaced with Lee Crystal.

Early on, keeping the band afloat was not easy. Joan and producer Kenny Laguna struggled, sometimes selling copies of albums from the trunk of his car. Eventually unable to keep up with the demand for Joan Jett’s album, they signed with Boardwalk Records.
