Michael Franti - The Future lyrics
rate meThey talk of the future like it's already the past <br />They Talk about the future like today will never last <br />Thay talk of the future while their diggin' through your trash <br />Taxman come to remove your cash <br />They talk of the future like a criminal plans <br />Corporate robberies in far off lands <br />They tell you the future's a big wonderland <br />and that homeland security's got a career for you <br />Don't you believe what they told you before <br />It's the same frikin' lies that they'll tell you some more <br />They searchin' your bag as you're boarding the plane <br />and they telling your neighbors that you went insane <br />I wouldn't believe that this was all coming true <br />If I could not see with my eyes that it's true <br />Even still I hope the future gets here soon <br />Bring it on bring it on <br /> <br />The future's comin' on like a bomb <br />The whole worlds rockin' and the beat goes on 2x <br />Ready or not we're bringing it on <br />The whole world's rockin' and the beat goes on <br /> <br />They take all your privacy give it away <br />and for musical piracy lock you away <br />They tell you that war is a permanent thing <br />and American Idol kids really can sing <br />Potheads on a rescue mission, <br />put your cancer in remission <br />People starving, malnutrition <br />work your abs into condition <br /> <br />Oh no now they after your soul <br />and they're telling you now that you're losing control <br />well its true cause I just got sick of it all <br />they say the savior's comin he's down at the mall <br />He's signing some autographs and selling them all <br />Pick up the phone now and make the call <br />I wouldn't believe that this is all coming true <br />If I could not see with my eyes that it's true <br />Even still I hope the future gets here soon <br />Bring it on bring it on <br /> <br />The future's comin' on like a bomb <br />The whole worlds rockin' and the beat goes on 2x <br />Ready or not we're bringing it on <br />The whole world's rockin' and the beat goes on <br /> <br />Stay for Tomorrow <br />Stay For Tomorrow <br />They talk of the future like today will never last <br />They talk of the future like it's already the past <br />They talk of the future while their diggin' through your trash <br />Taxman come to remove your cash <br /> <br />The future's comin' on like a bomb <br />The whole worlds rockin' and the beat goes on <br />Ready or not we're bringing it on <br />The whole world's rockin' and the beat goes on 2x <br /> <br />Stay for tomorrow <br />Stay for tomorrow<br /><br />
