In the Year 2525 lyrics

In the year 2525

If man is still alive

If woman can survive

They may find

In the year 3535

Can't tell the truth, can't tell no lie

Everything you think, do or say

Is in the pill you took today

In the year 4545

Won't need your teeth, won't need your eyes

You won't find a thing to do

Nobody's gonna look at you

In the year 5555

Your arms are hanging limp at your side

Your legs have nothing to do

Some machines doing that for you

In the year 6565

Won't need no husband, won't need no wife

You'll pick your sons, pick your daughters too

From the bottom of a long glass tube

Woah-oh

In the year 7510

If god is coming, he should make it by then

Maybe he'll look around and say

"Now it's time for the judgement day"

In the year 8510

God is gonna shake his mighty hand

He'll leave a salient place where man has been

Or tear it down and start again

Woah-oh

In the year 9595

I'm wondering if man is gonna be alive

He's taken everything earth had to give

And he's put back nothing

Woah-oh

Now it's been 10,000 years

Man has cried a billion tears

For what he never knew

Now man's reign is through

But through eternal light

The twinkling of starlight

So very far away

Now it's night to yesterday

In the year 2525

If man is still alive

If woman can survive

They may find

In the year 3535

Can't tell the truth, can't tell no lies

Everything you think do and say

Is in the pill you took today...
