The Future Now (2006 Digital Remaster) - Peter Hammill[00:00:00]

Here we are static in the latter half[00:00:27]

Of the twentieth century[00:00:32]

But it might as well be the Middle Ages [00:00:38]

There'll have to be some changes[00:00:41]

But how they'll come about foxes me [00:00:43]

I want the future now [00:00:49]

I want to hold it in my hands;[00:00:55]

All men equal and unbowed [00:01:00]

I want the promised land [00:01:05]

But that doesn't seem to get any closer [00:01:15]

And Moses has had his day [00:01:17]

The tablets of law are an advertising poster [00:01:22]

Civilisation here to stay[00:01:25]

And this is progress [00:01:29]

You must be joking [00:01:33]

Me I'm looking for any kind of hope [00:01:37]

I want the future now [00:01:42]

I want to see it on the screen [00:01:47]

I want to break the bounds[00:01:53]

That make our lives so mean [00:01:58]

Oh blind blinded blinding hatred[00:02:43]

Of race sex religion colour country and creed [00:02:46]

These scream from the pages of everything I read [00:02:50]

You just bring me oppression and torture [00:02:54]

Apartheid corruption and plague;[00:02:57]

You just bring me the rape of the planet[00:03:00]

And joke world rights at the Hague [00:03:02]

Oh someday the Millennium [00:03:05]

But how far is someday away [00:03:07]

I want the future now[00:03:11]

I'm young and it's my right [00:03:17]

I want a reason to be proud [00:03:22]

I want to see the light [00:03:27]

I want the future now [00:03:33]

I want to see it on the screen [00:03:38]

I want to break the bounds:[00:03:44]

Make life worth more than dreams[00:03:49]
