Future Song Lyrics - Darren Hayman

Future Song (Bracket parts unsure)

Verse I

This look nothing like it does in the brochure

The beds are double and (there) should be a four poster

We should be booked on the 19th floor

with a view of the lakes and the view of the mountains.

This girl looks nothing like the girl on the cover

She’s got acne and the braces,

she’s a (mother)

The photo shows a nymphette who could only be nineteen with big brown eyes.

Chorus

And the future is not what they said it would be

in the Sunday papers, the Seven-tiers (or 70th)

where’s my monorail, where’s my hover car, where’s my robot slave

My wife is into Elisabeth Sladen and she’s not Lesley Anne Down

But we live with disappointment in a small apartment

making do with what we found (Cheo Chai Hiang)

Verse II

They don’t make movie like they used to

They don’t make music like they used to

I don’t really feel the things I am supposed to

but my wife helps me work it thru’

Repeat Chorus

Instrumental
