rate me

Once a beautiful miss america married mr. right<br>Had a little baby girl, born on a stormy night<br>But that was once upon a time, now it's a brand new world<br>Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl<br>Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl<br>Somewhere just between the past and somethin' dawnin' new<br>There's a break in the chain, there's a skip in the clock<br>Girl that's where I'm gonna find you<br>Between the boy I was before and what I'm gonna be<br>There's a clash on the border, a flame in the sky<br>Girl that's where you're gonna find me<br><br>Can't you hear the planet groanin' like a broken down machine<br>Rusted with the guilty tears of fallen kings and queens<br>But you and I stand innocent, baby it's a brand new world<br>Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl<br>Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl<br>(gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl)<br><br>Bridge:<br><br>We're the son and the daughter on a new freeway<br>(gimme the future, gimme the future)<br>Laughin' while the road maps blow away<br>(gimme the future with a modern girl)<br>We're the son and the daughter and we ain't afraid<br>(gimme the future, gimme the future)<br>Won't be makin' the mistakes our fathers made<br>(gimme the future with a modern girl)<br>(gimme the future, gimme the future) oh, gimme the future with a modern girl<br>(gimme the future, gimme the future) oh, gimme the future with a modern girl<br><br>Once a beautiful miss america married mr. right<br>Had a little baby boy, born on a stormy night<br>But that was once upon a time, now it's a brand new world<br><br>Gimme the future, gimme the future - gimme the future with a modern girl...<br><br>(repeats out)<br><br>(bridge)
