[01:31.839]I can remember when this was the future
[01:35.575]Where it was gonna be at back then
[01:38.983]Why don't we tear the whole bloody lot down
[01:42.887]And make a new start all over again
[01:47.79]I can recall utopian thinking
[01:50.678]Bold mission statements and tightening of belts
[01:54.430]Demolition of familiar landmarks
[01:58.526]Promises made and deals that were dealt
[02:01.869]This used to be the future
[02:09.868]Where it was at back then
[02:16.962]Let's tear the whole bloody lot down
[02:24.458]And start all over again
[02:34.234]But that future was exciting
[02:37.866]Science fiction made fact
[02:41.954]Now all we have to look forward to
[02:45.522]Is a sort of suicide pact
[02:48.938]Was it the dear old future
[02:52.306]That created the problems we face
[02:56.398]How do we deal with the fallout
[02:59.862]Of the age we used to call space
[03:10.854]I can remember planning for leisure
[03:14.550]Living in peace and freedom from fear
[03:18.318]Science that promised to make us a new world
[03:22.22]Religion and prejudice disappear
[03:25.885]I can remember when this was the future
[03:29.709]Where it was gonna be at back then
[03:33.69]Now religion and nuclear energy have united
[03:38.113]To threaten oh god amen
[03:43.111]This used to be the future
[03:46.846]Where it was at back then
[03:50.334]Now religion and nuclear energy have united
[03:55.292]Oh god amen
[03:57.548]Was it the dear old future
[04:00.836]That created the problems we face
[04:04.804]How do we deal with the fallout
[04:08.444]Of the age we used to call space
[04:38.99]This used to be the future
[04:46.56]Where it was at back then
[04:53.56]Let's tear the whole bloody lot down
[05:00.656]And start all over again
[05:08.536]Amen
