In the year twentyfive twentyfive
if man is still alive
if woman can survive they my find
in the year thirtyfive thirtyfive
ainand't gonna need to tell the truth
tell no lies
evand'rything you think do and say
is in the pill you took today.
in the year fortyfive fortyfive
you ainand't gonna need your teeth
wonand't need your eyes
you wonand't find a thing to chew
nobodyand's gonna look at you.
in the year fiftyfive fiftyfive
your arms hanginand' limp at your sides,
your legs got nothinand' to do,
some machineand's doinand' that for you.
in the year sixtyfive sixtyfive
you wonand't need no husband,
wonand't need no wife,
youand'll pick your son,
pick your daughter too,
from the bottom of a long glass tube.
in the year seventyfive ten
if godand's acominand'
he oughtaand' make it by then.
maybe heand'll look around himself and say,
andquot;guess itand's time for the judgement day.andquot;
in the year eightyfive ten
god is gonna shake his mighty head,
heand'll eighter say,
andquot;iand'm pleased where man has been.andquot;
or tear it down, and start again.
in the year ninetyfive ninetyfive
iand'm kind a wonderinand'
if man is gonna be alive.
heand's taken evand'rything
this old earth can give,
and he ainand't put back nothinand'.
now itand's been ten thousand years,
man has cried a billion tears,
for what he never knew,
now manand's reign is through,
but through eternal night,
the twinkling of starlight
so very far away
maybe itand's only yesterday
in the year twentyfive twentyfive
if man is still alive
if woman can survive they may find.
