I was born on an Air Force Base Nineteen sixty two A rocket launch into outer space Knocked me out of the womb I cried and cried and cried Happy to be alive Astronauts were orbiting Earth The Space Age was in sight Where is the future that was promised us Where is the future for everyone Where is the future that was promised us Where is our future of fun Where is the future that was promised us I'm sick to death of this one I want to live in a floating city I want to drive a bubble car I want to fly with my personal jet pack I want to visit my family on Mars I want to live in an era of peace, Of Love and Justice, Wonder and Truth I want a world run by giant brains Instead of small-minded arrogant fools
