A Film For The Future
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.
Say!
This is a film about the future, it is the future of your life
You think it's certain,but nothing is certain
No nothing is certain, no nothing is certain, no!
I know what you think, you think this film is about you
It isn't about you, it isn't about you
I know what you think, you think this film is about you
I know what you think, you think this film is about you
I never realised at this time before now
It's clear to see that you are the leader now
You're just following a lost leader now
Following a lost leader now
This is a film about the future, it is the future of your life
Which you think is certain, but nothing is certain
No nothing is certain, no nothing is certain, no!
I know what you think, you think this film is about you
It isn't about you, it isn't about you
I know what you think, you think this film is about you
I know what you think, you think this film is about you
Say, say
