[ In the Year 2525 ] |
In the year 2525 |
If man is still alive. |
If woman can survive, they may find. |
In the year 3535 |
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies. |
Everything you think, do and say, is in the pill you took today. |
In the year 4545 |
Ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes. |
You won't find a thing to chew. |
Nobody's gonna look at you. |
In the year 5555 |
Your arms hanging limp at your sides. |
Your legs got nothing to do. |
Some machine doing that for you. |
In the year 6565 |
Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife. |
You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too. |
From the bottom of a long glass tube. Whoa-oh |
In the year 7510 |
If God's a-comin, he oughta make it by then. |
Maybe He'll look around himself and say. |
Guess it's time for the judgment day. |
In the year 8510 |
God is gonna shake his mighty head. |
He'll either say " I'm pleased where man has been. " |
Or tear it down and start again. Whoa-oh |
In the year 9595 |
I'm kinda wonderin' if man is gonna be alive. |
He's taken everything this old Earth can give. |
And he ain't put back nothing. Whoa-oh |
Now it's been ten thousand years |
Man has cried a billion tears. |
For what he never knew, |
now man's reign is through. |
But through eternal night. |
The twinkling of starlight. |
So very far away. |
Maybe it's only yesterday. |
In the year 2525 |
If man is still alive. |
If woman can survive, they may find. |
In the year 3535 |
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth.. |
Everything you think, do and say, is in the pill you took today. |
