In The Year 2525
Written by:Rick Evans
In the year
Twenty five twenty five
If man is still alive
If woman can survive
They may find
In the year
Thirty five thirty five
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
Forty five forty five
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
Fifty five fifty five
Your arms are hanging limp at your side
You legs got nothing to do
Some machine’s doing that for you
In the year
Sixty five sixty five
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
Whoa oh
In the year
Seventy five ten
If god’s a coming
He ought to make it
By then
Maybe he’ll look around himself and say
Guess it’s time for the judgement day
In the year
Eighty five ten
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
Whoa oh
In the year
Ninety five ninety five
I’m kinda wondering
If man is gonna be alive
He’s taken everything
This old earth can give
And he ain’t put back nothing
Woah oh
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 throught eternal night
The twinkling of starlight
So very far away
Maybe it’s only yesterday
In the year
Twenty five twenty five
If man is still alive
If woman can survive
They may find
In the year thirthy five thirthy five
