Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This is the next century
Where the universal's free
You can find it anywhere
Yes, the future's been sold
Every night we're gone
And to karaoke songs
How we like to sing along
Though the words are wrong
[Chorus]
It really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
When the days, they seem to fall through you
Well, just let them go
[Verse 2]
No one here is alone
Satellites in every home
Yes, the universal's here
Here for everyone
Every paper that you read
Says tomorrow's your lucky day
Well, here's your lucky day
[Chorus]
It really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
If the days, they seem to fall through you
Well, just let them go
Well, it really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
When the days, they seem to fall through you
Well, just let them go
[Outro]
Just let them go
Just let them go
