Dear Science (Live)

Yo, Oi it goes science,
Yeah, science is amazing
But not to me though
'Cause I am sick of waiting.
I've been patient, I really have,
I've been reasonable,
Now it's time to say what I needed to:

Dear Science,
Cheers for the iPods, white goods,
Yeah thank you for the cyborgs.
Top work on the lightbulb,
That was quite cool,
But where's my hoverboard?
Yeah, I mean I know you been busy,
No hoverboards just seems a bit piss weak.
I got a brand new computer and a big screen,
I guess Back To The Future was a dick tease.
And I can't be the only one,
Or maybe everyone forgot but I am holding on.
The hovercraft was a solid start,
Shoulda stuck with it.
Hoverboard.
Where the fuck is it?

I just wanna let you know you let me down.
I said I just wanna let you know you let me down.
I said, when I was just a kid at a tender age,
And I was singing about tomorrow and them better days...
I just wanna let you know you let me down.

Look, it goes: Robots doing jobs that we don't want,
Botoxed women looking more like robots,
It's so odd,
Everybody's getting nose jobs,
Lookin' more like aliens with their clothes off...
Hold up, I just had a new thought:
What if UFOs are just us from the future,
Coming back in time to sight see,
or might be to snatch women!
Tell 'em to bring some hoverboards back with them.

Yeah, when I was a kid I nearly threw a fit,
I got a skateboard, shit,
I was serious, like, what's the deal?
What the hell am i supposed to do with this?
It's got wheels?
Yeah, I can't clean the street with this, man.
Science will sort it out hopefully,
I don't wanna roll around the ground like a nobody.
I wanna soar upon a board made of pure science!
I am still saving up my dollars for a hoverboard...

I just wanna let you know you let me down.
I said I just wanna let you know you let me down.
I said, when I was just a kid at a tender age,
And I was singing about tomorrow and them better days...
And I, I just wanna let you know you let me down.

TALKING BIT
Aye aye little girl look I'm being chased by this biff dude, erhm I need to borrow your little scooter thing, chuck it at me rip! There goes your handlebars yew man! Hoverboard!

You can take a jet pack when the jet's packed;
A rocket with a chest strap seems like a death trap,
So forget that, just give me the damn hoverboard!
And now I have to do another monologue.

The other day I drew a little rough design on a serviette,
So now all you have to do is make it work and shit...
Just get some magnets, and a piece of wood, and glue 'em on.
I'm not trying to tell you people how to do your job.
Just keep the drawings and I'll be back in the morning to check
whether you're dawdling, you're sure to win awards here at the most.
Or, so here's an idea, since the Delorean,
Be sure to try to make one to travel over water with,
and yeah I brought a storm on beyond 2000,
I'm pretty sure that we're beyond that now, man.
I know I'm ramblin' but, fuckin' hell, Science!
I just want a hoverboard before I'm too old to ride it!

I just wanna let you know you let me down.
I said I just wanna let you know you let me down.
I said, when I was just a kid at a tender age,
And I was singing about tomorrow and them better days...
And I, I just wanna let you know you let me down.

Look, they bombarded us with long articles
About the Hadron Collider trying to find the god particle.
And everybody arguing about whether or not to clone people
Or keep it to farmyard animals, shit,
Double 'em up, triple 'em, fuck discipline
Grab a bunch of rabbits and slap all the lipstick on 'em you want.
Yeah, or maybe high heels to match!
It's what playing God is for.
Hoverboard.

I just wanna let you know you let me down.
I said I just wanna let you know you let me down.
I said, when I was just a kid at a tender age,
And I was singing about tomorrow and them better days...
And I, I just wanna let you know you let me down.
