I'm gonna make a change, 
For once in my life

It's gonna feel real good, 
Gonna make a difference

Gonna make it right...

As I, turn up the collar on my favorite winter coat
This wind is blowin' my mind

I see the kids in the street with not enough to eat
Who am I, to be blind?
Pretending not to see their needs

summer's disregard
broken bottle top 
And one man's soul

They follow each other on the wind ya' know

Cause they got no where to go

That's why I want you to know

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make that change

I've been a victim of a selfish kinda love
It's time that I realize

There are some with no home,
Not a nickel to loan
Could it be, really me

Pretending that they're not alone?

willow deeply scarred 
Somebody's broken heart 
And a washed out dream 

They follow the pattern of the wind ya see

'Cause they got no place to be that's why I'm starting with me

I'm starting with the man in the mirror (New Directions You)
I'm asking him to change his ways (New Directions You)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make that change

I'm starting with the man in the mirror (New Directions You)
I'm asking him to change his ways (New Directions You)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make that change

And no message could have been any clearer (New Directions Ooh ooh)

Mike with New Directions
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change [bad word] on)
You got to get it right, while you got the time (Artie Wooooo)
'Cause when you close your heart, (Artie You can't), then you close your
(Artie Close your, your mind) mind

Finn and New Directions
I'm starting with the man in the mirror (New Directions Oh yeah) (Artie That man, that man, that man)
I'm asking him to change his ways (New Directions Just change) (Artie That man, that man, that man. that man, You know, that man)
And no message (Finn and Artie could have been any clearer) 
(New Directions Ooh ooh)
