Beyond Tomorrow
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.
We will be driving in little time bombs everywhere
One a seat in a skyscraper with aluminum hair
therre'll be someone downstairs
Collecting all our names
Numbers all in a file somewhere
Everyone will be saved
CHORUS
Beyond tomorrow, beyond tomorrow
Someone will be in the air
In a plane by the sea
I could be anywhere at all
If I could just be
I'll eat candied policemen
You'll eat farmers fromell
Everyone will be very modern
Can't you tell?...
CHORUS
There could be another one come from the East
With a mark on his head, the sign of the beast
Then we will all extinguish
Fromhis thing we call yeast
Did we come from yest?...
Way back when in a Petri dish
We were mated with some weird kinda fish
Then we grew arms and legs
Now we have 'em alive-no eggs
In a room far away near the capitol
There's a nox that sits on someone's skull
We'll all be waitin' for the word comin' down
Mentime...let's blow this town
CHORUS
