about

For all of humanity’s advances, there’s still a lot we need to do.

lyrics

It’s 2020
That means the future is here
We were told long ago
With visions very clear
That by this point in time
We should be martian pioneers

We were told that technology
Would solve all our ills
There’d be no need for money
And no need for bills
That our dinner
Would be served up as pills

(chorus)
It’s the Future
Where’s my Jetpack
It’s the Future
Where’s my Hovercar
It’s the Future
I want a Time Machine
To take to where my dreams are
‘Cause we haven’t really come that far

We were told by now
We’d be living on the moon
So I’ve waited long enough
Can we got on that soon
We’ll be ready to go
By the end of June

Don’t get me wrong
We’ve invented a lot
Like the internet
And the instant pot
And.. um.. .the internet
What else we got?

CHORUS

We’re still here looking
For a way to make our waters pure
We want a robot friend
Who will not revolt for sure
We’re looking for wars to end
And for a cancer cure

Yeah I know when you look at it
We’ve advanced a long, long ways
Life spans and medicine and even microwaves
But there is so much, we’ve only so many days

CHORUS

It’s the future
I want a slidewalk
It’s the future
I want a transporter
It’s the future
I want a cool laser sword
It’s the future
I want my MTV
It’s the future
I want my time machine
To take me to where my dreams are
‘Cause we haven’t really come that far
