LYRICS

In the year 2525, if man is still alive
If woman can survive, they may find
In the year 3535

Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lie
Everything you think, do and say
Is in the pill you took today

In the year 4545
You ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes
You won't find a thing to chew
Nobody's gonna look at you

In the year 5555
Your arms hangin' limp at your sides
Your legs got nothin' to do
Some machine's doin' that for you

In the year 6565
Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife
You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too
From the bottom of a long glass tube

In the year 7510
If God's a-coming, He oughta make it by then
Maybe He'll look around Himself and say
"Guess it's time for the Judgement Day"

In the year 8510
God is gonna shake His mighty head
He'll either say, "I'm pleased where man has been"
Or tear it down, and start again

In the year 9595
I'm kinda wonderin' if man is gonna be alive
He's taken everything this old earth can give
And he ain't put back nothing

Now it's been ten thousand years, man has cried a billion tears
For what, he never knew, now man's reign is through
But through eternal night, the twinkling of starlight
So very far away, maybe it's only yesterday

Daniel Lanois - "Still Water"


Sad eyes, sad eyes
Where you going with that confidence?
Sad eyes, sad eyes
Where you going with that confidence?

I'm going to where the boats go by
Caledonia river flow so wide
I'm going to where the boats go by
Caledonia river flow so wide

Still water, laying over
Still water, laying over
Still water, laying over
Caledonia river oh so wide

Wild eyes in the wilderness
Where you going with the devil in hand?
Wild eyes in the wilderness
Where you going with the devil in hand?

I'm going to build the bridges high
For working money, for working money
I'm going to climb the bridges high
Caledonia brother far away

Still water, I'm laying over
Still water, lay my body down over
Still water, laying over
Caledonia river far away

Sad eyes in the weary night
Have you seen your brother? Have you seen your brother?
Waiting by the river Grand
Caledonia river oh so wide

Going to where the rain falls
Look for my brother, look for my brother
Going to where the rain falls
Caledonia river far away

Still water, laying over
Still water, lay my body down
Still water, laying over
Caledonia river far away

Deep Purple - "The Aviator"

From the band that brought us "Smoke on the Water, this song is from their 1996 album "Purpendicular"


Riding on the moon-path
in the silver of the night
The fragrance on the air
was of another time
I cried in all my innocence
you were dressed in white
and even if I'd had the strength
I couldn't move to save my life

The fear and the thrill
of the beast at the window
The shivers and the chills
on the hottest of nights
he walked right through
my open door
As I began to run, he threw
some gold upon the floor, and said
There's plenty more
where that came from

I'm tired of the bombs
I'm tired of the bullets
I'm tired of the crazies on TV
I'm the aviator
A dream's a dream whatever it seems

I flew along the lighted street
I flew above the town
I flew in ever rising circles
ever further from the ground
As I begin to lose my breath
printed faxes turn a spin
A distant corner of the room
will open up and let me in

I'm tired of the news
I'm tired of the weather
I'm tired of the same thing every day
I'm the aviator
A dream's a dream whatever they say

Eric Clapton in a new song, a clear denounce to the current state of things.

Interesting part of the lyrics: If you wanna claim my soul You'll have to come and break down this door.

"This Has Gotta Stop"


This has gotta stop
Enough is enough
I can't take this BS any longer

It's gone far enough
If you wanna claim my soul
You'll have to come and break down this door

I knew that something was going on wrong
When you started laying down the law

I can't move my hands
I break out in sweat
I wanna cry
Can't take it anymore

This has gotta stop
Enough is enough
I can't take this BS any longer

It's gone far enough
If you wanna claim my soul
You'll have to come and break down this door

I've been around
Long long time
Seen it all
And I'm used to being free

I know who I am
Try to do what's right
So lock me up and throw away the key

This has gotta stop
Enough is enough
I can't take this BS any longer

It's gone far enough
If you wanna claim my soul
You'll have to come and break down this door

Thinkin' of my kids
What's left for them
And then what's coming down the road

The light in the tunnel
Could be the southbound train
Lord, please help them with their load

This has gotta stop
Enough is enough
I can't take this BS any longer

It's gone far enough
If you wanna claim my soul
You'll have to come and break down this door

This has gotta stop
Enough is enough
I can't take this BS any longer

It's gone far enough
If you wanna claim my soul
You'll have to come and break down this door

(This door)
(This door)
(This door)
(Break down this door)

(This door)
(This door)
(This door)
(Break down this door)​

Paul Brady - "Unfinished Business"


It's another broken night
And I've wrestled till the dawn
With some old unfinished business
That insists on hanging on

Thought I'd put it all to rest
But as usual I'm wrong
Like the time I said goodbye to
The one that really was the one

Days go by
But memories have a longer life
Keep my heart pre-occupied
Show up in the strangest places

Now I'm lying here with you
And you ask what's on my mind
It's just some old unfinished business
From an unforgotten time

Now it isn't fair I know
To compare you to a dream
That will always be as perfect
As the love that should've been

Days go by
But memories have a longer life
Keep my heart pre-occupied
Show up in the strangest places

Now I'm lying here with you
And you ask what's on my mind
It's just some old unfinished business
From an unforgotten time

Days go by
Days go by
Days go by

Billy Strings - "In The Morning Light"
Billy Strings | On Tour Now


So in the morning when I see her in the light
She comes through to me in any kind of weather
And I know I'll never see a brighter day when she smiles with her eyes
Even with a clouded heart chocked full of doubt
She can sing away the worry of rejection
She's a wonder to behold I'll lover her
Till I'm growing old and that's the plan

But if I could find more that's worthy
I'd surrender it all
I'm not sure that I deserve the love that I receive
But I give it all to her

Captivating when she moves across the floor
I remember what it is I came here for
And it seems so easy now
I can't believe it but somehow, I made her mine
And every now and then the past will ring a bell
And I'm not looking back I'm only moving forward
If I knew then what I do now
I wouldn't be here anyhow, but it's been clear

But if I could find more that's worthy
I'd surrender it all
I'm not sure that I deserve the love that I receive
But I give it all to her

So if I come to some conclusion by tonight
I'll be free from all the sorrow I've been drinking
Swear I'll never let her down
I couldn't bear to hear the sound of her steps leaving
And in the evening when the sun is running low
I'll walk bravely through the fields of burning ember
And I'll remember everything she said to me back
When our love was first in bloom

But if I could find more that's worthy
I'd surrender it all
All the praise that I could earn
Means nothing without hers
Not sure that I deserve, all the love that I receive
But I give it all to her
