歌词
(Verse 1)
Welcome to the future, the year's 2020 and beyond,
We were promised flying cars, but alas, they're not yet spawned.
No jetpacks in our closets, no Martian homes to find,
The tech of tomorrow? Well, it's slightly behind.
(Pre-Chorus)
We've got smartphones, smart homes, and drones overhead,
But the dreams of sci-fi books are still mostly unread.
(Chorus)
Here’s to the future, it’s not what we thought,
No flying cars, but hey, the world hasn’t stopped.
Two cheers for survival, and three that we’re free,
In this future imperfect, we're still dreaming, you see.
(Verse 2)
Fusion's still a theory, we're tinkering away,
The singularity’s stalled, much to AI’s dismay.
They said we’d have world peace, but humans are the same,
Playing age-old power games, just under a new name.
(Bridge)
Remember the doomsday clock? It’s been minutes to midnight,
Yet here we are, no apocalypse in sight.
A million and one predictions that fizzled into air,
And we’re still making coffee, living life without despair.
(Chorus)
Here’s to the future, it’s not what we thought,
No flying cars, but hey, the world hasn’t stopped.
Two cheers for survival, and three that we’re free,
In this future imperfect, we're still dreaming, you see.
(Verse 3)
No endless wars engulf us, nor fields that we must toil,
Our battles are digital, and oil's not the only spoil.
No colony on Alpha Centauri, no tickets to the stars,
But we're exploring inner space, healing ancient scars.
(Outro)
So raise a glass to what’s not here, and to what’s yet to come,
The future's always in the making, and it’s never quite done.
Let’s cheer for the now, for tech and for art,
For the human spirit, ever eager to restart.
Welcome to the future, it’s quirky and it's strange,
Not quite what was promised, but hey, there’s still range.
With every sunrise, we dream and we scheme,
In the future we live, there’s still room to dream.
