about

In the far future, feeling nostalgic for a not-as-far future.
Many thanks to the Statler Brothers' "Whatever Happened to Randolph Scott"

lyrics

The world is changing so fast
The future’s here at last
But could we ever be - the way we used to be...

Back then
When life was simple and we didn’t have a worry at all
Take a seat inside the hoverbus and plug in the news
Doing homework on our twenty minute cruise

That’s when
We had to work for everything we wanted, not like today
Pushing touchscreens with our fingers, watching seconds tick by
The effort is what made it all worthwhile

It was a beautiful world, a simpler time
A glorious age, old-fashioned and kind
Do you remember the days that are far behind
Robots with wings, gravity guns
The chromium trains would shine in the sun
And where am I now, I used to be number one

Back when
We just ate anything we wanted without gaining a pound
Grabbing food pills by the handful on our way out to play
Now I can’t have more than three a day

Those days
I had a memory so sharp it’s like I never forgot
Now my brain chip’s unsupported, won’t update anymore
Oh how I miss the way it was before

It was a beautiful world, a simpler time
A glorious age, old-fashioned and kind
Do you remember the days that are far behind
Robots with wings, gravity guns
The chromium trains would shine in the sun
And where am I now, I used to be number one

And you
Were there beside me as we wondered what the future would be
Making promises that we had no idea we wouldn’t keep
I think of you sometimes when I can’t sleep

It was a beautiful world, a simpler time
A glorious age, old-fashioned and kind
Do you remember the days that are far behind
Robots with wings, gravity guns
The chromium trains would shine in the sun
And where am I now, I used to be number one

It was a beautiful world, a simpler time
A glorious age, old-fashioned and kind
Do you remember the days that are far behind
Robots with wings, gravity guns
The chromium trains would shine in the sun
And where am I now, I used to be number one
And where am I now, I used to be number one
And where am I now, I used to be number one
