The Future

By Catherine Bennett (2013)
On album The Future (2013)

The Future
[Verse 1]
Fingernails that paint themselves
Exoskeletal body shells
Built in microchips
Charting Martian time slips
Laser eyes floating in space
Software that can remember your face
Boots with built-in anti-gravity
Oh, and equality

[Chorus]
In the future
(Just imagine it)
In the future
(Just imagine it)
In the future
(Just imagine it)
Some sort of version of paradise

[Verse 2]
People with the power of flight
Mosquitos that don't bite
Dreams of electric sheep
A two day working week
Ways to stop and rewind the time
Cars built like Optimus Prime
Instantly changeable hair
Oh, and polar bears

[Chorus]
In the future
(Just imagine it)
In the future
(Just imagine it)
In the future
(Just imagine it)
Some sort of version of paradise

[Bridge]
If they say "It seems insurmountable"
Then you say "Nothing is impossible"

[Verse 3]
An autotuned voicebox
Friends that don't act like robots
Artificial gills
Superhero skills
At least four more ways to eat potatoes
A never-ending full supply of excellect clothes
Instant teleportation
Oh, no evil corporations

[Verse 4]
A switch to fall asleep
Swanky houses going down cheap
Traffic warden detectors
Thicker skin to protect us
Tattoos you turn off and on
Mind based ways to disarm a gun
A pop star made by a niece
Oh, yeah, yeah, world peace

[Chorus]
In the future
(Just imagine it)
In the future
(Just imagine it)
In the future
(Just imagine it)
Some sort of version of paradise

[Chorus]
In the future
(Just imagine it)
In the future
(Just imagine it)
In the future
Some sort of version of paradise
(Just imagine it)
