This Is Tomorrow

Here in the hush of evening

On a night in June

Overhearing conversations

Baying at the moon

Suddenly a voice I'm hearing's sweet

To my ear

This is tomorrow callin'

Wishin' you were here

Layin' in my hotel bedroom

Feeling ceiling blues

Wall to wall a TV's twitching

Clearly not a muse

Then flashin' through the interference

Beams a thousand tunes

This is tomorrow calling

What have I to lose?

Truckin' by the railway station

I'm on the road again

Steerin' clear of all temptation

Unto the point of pain

When steamin' through on cue

I hear the wailing whistle blow

If this is tomorrow calling

Oh, what a way to go

Day to day you live old fashioned

Hi-toned, fancy free

A double take, an image spitting

Tailored to a T

While history is tellin' you

The same old thing

This is tomorrow calling

Let's stick a new world in

This is tomorrow calling

Ya'll right, come on in
