Ian Brown - In The Year 2525 lyrics
[Ian Brown - In The Year 2525 lyrics]
In the year 2525 if man is still alive
If woman can survive they may find
In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth
Tell no lies
Everything you think, do, and say
Is in the pill you took today
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
In the year 5555
Your arms are hanging limp at your sides
Your legs got nothing to do
Some machine's doing that for you
In the year 6565
Ain't gonna need no husband
Won't need no wife you'll pick your sons
Pick your daughters too
From the bottom of a long glass tube
Whoa oh oh
In the year 7510
If God's a-coming, should've made it by then
Maybe he'll look around himself and say
"Guess it's time for judgement day!"
In the year 8510
God is gonna shake his mighty head
He'll either say, "I'm please, d
Where man has been"
Or tear it down and start again whoa oh oh
In the year 9595
I'm kinda wonderin', if man is gonna be alive
He's taken everything this old Earth can give
And he ain't put back nothing whoa oh oh
Now it's been ten thousand years
Man has cried a billion tears
For what he never knew
Now man's reign is through
But through the eternal night
The twinkling of starlight so very far away
Maybe it's only yesterday
If woman can survive they may find
In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth
Tell no lies
Everything you think, do, and say
Is in the pill you took today
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
In the year 5555
Your arms are hanging limp at your sides
Your legs got nothing to do
Some machine's doing that for you
In the year 6565
Ain't gonna need no husband
Won't need no wife you'll pick your sons
Pick your daughters too
From the bottom of a long glass tube
Whoa oh oh
In the year 7510
If God's a-coming, should've made it by then
Maybe he'll look around himself and say
"Guess it's time for judgement day!"
In the year 8510
God is gonna shake his mighty head
He'll either say, "I'm please, d
Where man has been"
Or tear it down and start again whoa oh oh
In the year 9595
I'm kinda wonderin', if man is gonna be alive
He's taken everything this old Earth can give
And he ain't put back nothing whoa oh oh
Now it's been ten thousand years
Man has cried a billion tears
For what he never knew
Now man's reign is through
But through the eternal night
The twinkling of starlight so very far away
Maybe it's only yesterday
