Lyrics

Old man sitting by the side of the road
He's not watching the birds today
He's not watching the sunset like he always does
He's looking at the future
He has seen the past
Schoolboy passes by interrupts his thoughts
He said, Sir can you spare me a dollar?
I got to make in time for my grade eight class
I am fresh out of cigarettes and I can't be late
Old man said, the world is changing
(Take your time, look around)
(Make the right decision)
(The world is changing)
(Take your time look around)
(Make the right decision)
He has no crystal ball but he sees the future
Doesn't like what he sees
But what can he do?
Little girl passes by with a baby in her arms
He thinks it's her mother's, but no, it is her own
She's only twelve years old, for crying out loud
With his trembling finger he wipes away the tears
If this is the future he doesn't wanna be part of it
(The world is changing)
(Take your time, look around) Take your time, make the right decision
(Make the right decision)
(The world is changing)
(Take your time look around)
(Make the right decision)
(The world is changing)
(Take your time look around)
(Make the right decision)
Old man sitting by the side of his bed
When he goes to sleep tonight
He won't have no sweet dreams
He'll be haunted, by ghosts from the future
Welcome to the future
