Bright (feat. Brandon Uranowitz & Santino Fontana)
What's
World War One?
Our recent conflagration
Why "One"?
We're not done
There's a continuation
How
Can that be?
The Great War has no equal!
On land, air, and sea!
Get ready for the sequel
From Thirty-nine to Forty-five
And do we make it out alive?
From Berlin to Nagasaki
Hey, Al Jolsen makes a "talkie"
"You ain't heard nothin' yet"
That phrase feels entirely right
The future looks bright
No!
To the moon?
This feels like science fiction
Jules Verne
Had his turn
Yet here's the real depiction!
But back on Earth, there's plenty wrong
In Vietnam, the Viet Cong?
We'll fly through the constellations
Masses of assassinations
But we walk on the moon!
For one night
Wheee!
The future looks bright
Why do we have these pages?
What purpose do they serve?
If you see a pothole,
It's likelier you'll swerve?
But why should we trust this history?
This "future"
It could be full of lies
It has to be impossible
And yet I still believe
Still, I can't believe my eyes!
Who's Patty Hearst?
Relates to William Randolph?
Who's Cher?
I don't care
Let's do another hand-off
Hey, have you heard of Medicaid?
No, but look at Roe v. Wade
It seems some people were offended
But the controversy's ended
East and West Germany reunite!
I didn't know they were separated
Meanwhile, the future looks
What is "the web"?
It's what a spider's weaving?
Phones
Control drones
Around us all
I'm leaving!
Do people even read books anymore?
In the Amazon, there's an "online store"?
I think that there's too much to see here
Wonder if it mentions me here
In the dark, it could throw on a light
Meanwhile
The future looks bright
The future looks bright
The future looks bright
The future looks
Bright
