Welcome to the Future
As you glide in through your roof
Your car becomes your chair
This button pours your drinks
This button takes your coat
And your meal is on the way
You speak in wheels like you roll any different
Your dialect requires a mean bit of fiction
I hate to say it but one day you will see this too
Welcome to the future
Keep your ears to the street
Smell the flying cars and movie stars and
Missed opportunity
I've got a revelation
That will bring you to your knees
You'll throw a blind eye
But nothing in this world is ever free
Welcome to the future
Glue your eyes to the feed
Smell the flying cars and movie stars and
Decaying novelty
They've got a revolution planned
For each day this week
We're going prime time
When nothing in this world comes for free
As self-containment fails
All this dissolves from view
The ghost of language haunts the grave of subtlety
And though your eyes still wander
You never do
And though you'd sell your soul
It's still a part of you
And when it seems that day
Will never come
We'll just wait here in the dark
Dreaming
Hoping for an afterlife
We'll just wait here in the dark
Breathing
Looking for some inner glow
We'll just wait here in the dark
Your car becomes your chair
This button pours your drinks
This button takes your coat
And your meal is on the way
You speak in wheels like you roll any different
Your dialect requires a mean bit of fiction
I hate to say it but one day you will see this too
Welcome to the future
Keep your ears to the street
Smell the flying cars and movie stars and
Missed opportunity
I've got a revelation
That will bring you to your knees
You'll throw a blind eye
But nothing in this world is ever free
Welcome to the future
Glue your eyes to the feed
Smell the flying cars and movie stars and
Decaying novelty
They've got a revolution planned
For each day this week
We're going prime time
When nothing in this world comes for free
As self-containment fails
All this dissolves from view
The ghost of language haunts the grave of subtlety
And though your eyes still wander
You never do
And though you'd sell your soul
It's still a part of you
And when it seems that day
Will never come
We'll just wait here in the dark
Dreaming
Hoping for an afterlife
We'll just wait here in the dark
Breathing
Looking for some inner glow
We'll just wait here in the dark
