Lyrics

My mother once told me
on the phone that I should name my band Millennium
'cause in the next few years the millennium
will be on everyone's minds
I told her that I agreed but I didn't like it as a band name
Yet it got me thinking about what I'll be doing in 2040
In 2040, I'll reminisce about the twentieth century
when we still wrote on pads of paper
Humans still did all the cleaning
In 2040, I'll be camping out with my grandsons
They'll have little gadgets to talk to their friends around the world
They'll see them, smell them, hear them, feel them
Communicate as if they're there
In 2040, my wife and I will take up games like lawn bowling
And we'll compete interactively with couples our age in Africa
And we'll compete interactively with couples our age in Thailand
In 2040, I'll reminisce about the twentieth century
when we still wrote on pads of paper
Humans still did all the cleaning
In 2040, I'll reminisce about the twentieth century
when we still wrote on pads of paper
Humans still did all the cleaning
In 2040 I'll be camping out with my grandsons
They'll have little gadgets to talk to their friends around the world
They'll see them, smell them, hear them, feel them
Communicate as if they're there
They'll see them, smell them, hear them, feel them
Communicate as if they're there
In 2040, I'll reminisce about the twentieth century
when we still wrote on pads of paper
Humans still did all the cleaning
In 2040, I'll reminisce about the twentieth century
when we still wrote on pads of paper
Humans still did all the cleaning
In 2040, I'll reminisce about the twentieth century
when we still wrote on pads of paper
Humans still did all the cleaning
