When I look into the future There are robots all round me There are aliens landing on Earth There are saucers in the sky But there aren't any birds. When I look into the future There's a memory stick in my head There's a tracking device under my feet There's a monitor behind my eyes But there isn't a single photograph. | When I look into the future There are ________________________ There are ________________________ There are ________________________ But there aren't any ________________ When I look into the future There's a ________________________ There's a ________________________ There's a ________________________ But there isn't ____________________ |
In 2030 I'd like to be part of a new generation I'd like to live in a world at peace Then shake hands with people I don't know I'd like to say hello And greet strangers like brothers I'd like to be able to hug a foreigner And invite him to dinner I'd like to be happy Then share my bliss I'd like to take action And make this possible | In 2030 I'd like to ____________________ I'd like to ____________________ Then ____________________ I'd like to ____________________ And ____________________ I'd like to ____________________ And ____________________ I'd like to ____________________ Then ____________________ I'd like to ____________________ And ____________________ |
