2525 Lyrics

 In The Year 2525 - Zager and Evans 
  
 In the year 2525 
 If man is still alive 
 If woman can survive 
 They may find...  
  
 In the year 3535 
 Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies 
 Everything you think, do, or say 
 Is in the pill you took today  
  
 In the year 4545 
 Ain't gonna 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 sides 
 Your legs not nothing to do 
 Some machine is doing that for you 
  
 In the year 6565 
 Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife 
 You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too 
 From the bottom of a long black tube 
  
 In the year 7510 
 If God's a-comin' he ought to make it by then 
 Maybe he'll look around himself and say 
 ``Guess it's time for the Judgement day'' 
  
 In the year 8510 
 God's gonna shake his mighty head 
 He'll either say ``I'm pleased where man has been'' 
 Or tear it down and start again 
  
 In the year 9595 
 I'm kinda wondering if man's gonna be alive 
 He's taken everything this old earth can give 
 And he ain't put back nothing... 
  
 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 the eternal night 
 The twinkling of starlight 
 So very far away 
 Maybe it's only yesterday...
