Futureland

Gotta go, gotta get away
That’s an easy thing to say
But we’ve got to deal anyway
With what we see today

Yesterday’s dead and gone
Nothing to depend upon
When what tomorrow has in store
Knocks on the door

Not in the bye and bye
But only blink your eye
And it will be at hand
Futureland

More violence and robot planes
Or peace and love that reigns
Putting down and caring less
Or showing tenderness

A higher speed in the status rush
Or staying free to say “enough”
Isolated privacy
Or community

Not in the bye and bye …

More nuclear power plants
Or trees and flower plants
Only pollution everywhere
Or birds in the air

A future for you and me
Do you believe it’s gonna be
The way we act today will show
If it’s yes or no

Not in the bye and bye …

Not in the bye and bye …
