Livin' In The Future |
A letter come blowing in on an ill wind
Something 'bout me and you never seeing one another again
Yeah, well I knew it'd come, still I was struck deaf and dumb
Like when we kissed, that taste of blood on your tongue
Don't worry darling, now baby don't you fret
We're living in the future and none of this has happened yet
Don't worry darling, now baby don't you fret
We're living in the future and none of this has happened yet
Woke up election day, skies gunpowder and shades of grey
Beneath a dirty sun I whistle my time away
Then just about sundown you come walking through town
Your boot heels clicking like the barrel of a pistol spinning round
Don't worry darling, now baby don't you fret
We're living in the future and none of this has happened yet
Don't worry darling, now baby don't you fret
We're living in the future and none of this has happened yet
The earth it gave away, the sea rose towards the sun
I opened up my heart to you, it got all damaged and undone
My ship Liberty sailed away on a bloody red horizon
The groundskeeper opened the gates and let the wild dogs run
I'm rolling through town, a lost cowboy at sundown
Got my monkey on a leash, got my ear tuned to the ground
My faith's been torn asunder, tell me is that rolling thunder
Or just the sinking sound of something righteous going under
Don't worry darling, now baby don't you fret
We're living in the future and none of this has happened yet
Don't worry darling, now baby don't you fret
We're living in the future and none of this has happened yet
None of this has happened yet
None of this has happened yet
None of this has happened yet
None of this has happened yet
Na na na na, na na na na-na
Na na na na, na na na na-na
Na na na na, na na na na-na
Na na na na, na na na na-na
Na na na na, na na na na-na
Na na na na, na na na na-na
Na na na na, na na na na-na
