2040 Songtext
My mother once told me on the phone that
I should name my band, Millennium
Because in the next few years the millennium
Will be on everyone's minds
I told her that I agree,
But I didn't like it as a band name.
But 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
And humans still did all the cleaning

In 2040, I'll be camping out with my grandsons
Who'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.
We'll compete, interactively
With couples our age in Africa
And we'll compete, interactively
With couples our age in Thailand

CHORUS 2X

In 2040, I'll be camping out with my grandsons
Who'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.

CHORUS (repeat until fade out)
