This Used To Be the Future (2017 Remastered Version) - Pet Shop Boys (宠物店男孩)/Phil Oakey[00:00:00]
Written by:Chris Lowe/Neil Tennant[00:00:03]
I can remember when this was the future[00:01:31]
Where it was gonna be at back then[00:01:35]
Why don't we tear the whole bloody lot down[00:01:38]
And make a new start all over again[00:01:42]
I can recall utopian thinking[00:01:47]
Bold mission statements and tightening of belts[00:01:50]
Demolition of familiar landmarks[00:01:54]
Promises made and deals that were dealt[00:01:58]
This used to be the future[00:02:01]
Where it was at back then[00:02:09]
Let's tear the whole bloody lot down[00:02:16]
And start all over again[00:02:24]
But that future was exciting[00:02:34]
Science fiction made fact[00:02:37]
Now all we have to look forward to[00:02:41]
Is a sort of suicide pact[00:02:45]
Was it the dear old future[00:02:48]
That created the problems we face[00:02:52]
How do we deal with the fallout[00:02:56]
Of the age we used to call space[00:02:59]
I can remember planning for leisure[00:03:10]
Living in peace and freedom from fear[00:03:14]
Science that promised to make us a new world[00:03:18]
Religion and prejudice disappear[00:03:22]
I can remember when this was the future[00:03:25]
Where it was gonna be at back then[00:03:29]
Now religion and nuclear energy have united[00:03:33]
To threaten oh god amen[00:03:38]
This used to be the future[00:03:43]
Where it was at back then[00:03:46]
Now religion and nuclear energy have united[00:03:50]
Oh god amen[00:03:55]
Was it the dear old future[00:03:57]
That created the problems we face[00:04:00]
How do we deal with the fallout[00:04:04]
Of the age we used to call space[00:04:08]
This used to be the future[00:04:38]
Where it was at back then[00:04:46]
Let's tear the whole bloody lot down[00:04:53]
And start all over again[00:05:00]
Amen[00:05:08]
