歌词
We got to stop all men
From messin' up the land
When won't we understand
This is our last and only chance?
Everybody, it's a future shock
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Hey, little sister
Where's your brother?
See your mother
Standing on the soup line
Oh, no, no
God bless your father
Ain't got the strength to be bothered
The almighty world, hear me now
Whisper on to weigh him down
We got to stop all men
From messin' up the land
When won't we understand
This is our last and only chance?
Everybody, it's a future shock
Future shock, future shock
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
(Mmm-mmm-mmm)
Future shock, future shock
Mm-hmm
All worldly figures
Playing on ****
Oh, see them passing
See how they're dancing to the Superfly
Oh, ain't it wrong
When you don't know where we come from?
Dancing in our youth
Dying at the truth, it ain't over
(Over, over, ain't over)
We got to stop all men
From messin' up the land
When won't we understand
This is our last and only chance?
Everybody, it's a future shock
Future shock
Future shock, future shock
Hey, big sister
Where's your mister?
Chained to the bomb
Tryna to be calm
It's alright
What's going on?
You seem always alone
Couldn't raise bail
Man, he's in jail
Get on
We got to stop all men
From messin' up the land
When won't we understand
This is our last and only chance?
Everybody, it's a future shock
Future shock, future shock
Future shock, future shock
The price of the beat
Higher than the dope in the street
Is it any wonder
For those with nothing to eat?
Some got it made
But still sweet songs fade
(Fade, fade, fade)
There's no love for his brother
No praise for another
Future shock, has it going on
Future shock, everyone's alone
Future shock, don't know the people
Future shock, pray for the steeple
Future shock, future shock
Future shock, yeah
Future shock
