Lyrics

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, and 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 chew
 Nobody's gonna look at you
 In the year 5555
 Your arms are hanging limp at your sides
 Your legs got nothing to do
 Some machine's 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 glass tube
 ♪
 In the year 7510
 If God's a-comin', he oughta make it by then
 Maybe he'll look around Himself and say
 Guess it's time for the Judgment day
 In the year 8510
 God is 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 wonderin' if man is gonna be alive
 He's taken everything this old Earth can give
 And he ain't put back nothin'
 Now it's been ten thousand years
 Man has cried a billion tears
 For what he never knew
 Now, man's reign is through
 But through eternal night
 The twinkling of starlight
 So very far away
 Maybe, it's only yesterday
 In the year 2525
 If man is still alive
 If woman can survive
 They may thrive
 In the year 3535
 Ain't gonna need to tell the truth...
