Why did the signers of the declaration think it was their right as well of their duty to change their country?
According to the Declaration, Governments are created with the consent (permission) of the governed (i.e. their citizens) to secure the "Unalienable rights" such as Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. As such, when a government is actually infringing upon those rights (i.e. violating those rights instead of protecting them), it is the right of the people to abolish (get rid of) it and create a new government. In other words, they believed it was their right because the government could only exist with their consent, which they no longer gave, for the purpose of protecting rights which it infringed upon rather than protecting. They believed it was their duty because they felt that King George was a despot (essentially a tyrant for our purposes) and listed a long list of examples to back this up.
