Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If women can survive
They may find
[Verse 2]
In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
Everything you think, do or say
Is in the pill you took today
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
In the year 5555
You arms are hanging limp at your sides
Your legs got nothing to do
Some machine is doing that for you
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
In the year 7510
If God is coming, shoulda made it by then
Maybe he'll look around himself and say
Guess it's time for judgement day
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
In the year 9595
I'm kinda worried if man is gonna be alive
He's taken everything this old earth can give
And he ain't put back nothing
[Verse 9]
Now it's been 10,000 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
