The Universal
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This is the next century
Where the Universal's free
You can find it anywhere
Yes, the future's been sold
Every night we're gone
And to karaoke songs
How we like to sing along
Though the words are wrong
It really, really, really could happen
Yes it really, really, really could happen
When the days they seem to fall through you
Well, just let them go
No one here is alone
Satellites in every home
Yes, the Universal's here
Here for everyone
Every paper that you read
Says tomorrow's your lucky day
Well, here's your lucky day
It really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
When the days they seem to fall through you
Well, just let them go
Well, it really, really, really could happen
Yes, it really, really, really could happen
When the days they seem to fall through you
Well, just let them go
Just let them go
Just let them go
