A People's History Of The Future

The future's here!
F. U. T. U. R. E.

Future, never fear
Now we're here for the future.
Compare how the time is mine now,
So you've done that and been there.
Grandfather why you talking to me
About this population of a nation? You know I weren't there.
So I hate to say
But I don't care.

That stuff's in the past, we can't go back,
A people's history is of no use to me.
A broken radio transmits how life used to be.
No tuning in the F. U. T. U. R. E.

F. U. T. U. R. E.

Back then never a lock on our door,
Not back in the war.
The kids weren't scared, the Bobbies cared,
The criminals were fair and the beans got shared.
But then they came from across the sea,
Single-mothers suddenly got houses free
With Turkey-Twizzlers and homosexuality.
Well things ain't what they should be.

That's in the past, we can't go back,
A people's history is of no use to me.
A broken radio transmits how life used to be.
No tuning in the F. U. T. U. R. E.

That's in the past, we can't go back,
A people's history is of no use to me.

Grandmother, won't you tell another story?
Grandfather gave the best years of his life to this country
So that we could all be free from a fascist tyranny
Now he only goes and votes for BNP.
So now let's meet it. Take stock of the past and we'll beat it
Or otherwise we'll just repeat it.
Woah. I said we're the future and I meant it.
Woah. Best way to predict is invent it.

A point so simple to see. F. U. T. U. R. E.

That's in the past, we can't go back,
A people's history is of no use to me.
A broken radio transmits how life used to be.
We can't go back, a people's history of how life used to be,
The Golden Age of life is just a story to me,
I'm looking to the F. U. T. U. R. E.
