Zager and Evans — In the Year 2525

[Chorus 1] In the year 2525 If man is still alive If woman can survive They may find- [Chorus 2] In the year 3535 Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies Everything you think, do, and say Is in the pills you took today [Chorus 3] In the year 4545 Ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes You won't find a thing to chew Nobody's gonna look at you [Chorus 4] In the year 5555 Your arms are hanging limp at your sides Your legs got nothing to do Some machine's doing that for you [Chorus 5] In the year 6565 Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife You'll pick your sons, pick your daughters too From the bottom of a long glass tube Whoa-oh-oh [Chorus 6] In the year 7510 If God's a-coming, he ought to make it by then Maybe he'll look around himself and say “Guess it's time for the judgement day!” [Chorus 7] In the year 8510 God is gonna shake his mighty head He'll either say, "I'm pleased, where man has been" Or tear it down and start again Whoa-oh-oh [Chorus 8] In the year 9595 I'm kinda wonderin', if man is gonna be alive He's taken everything this old Earth can give And he ain't put back nothing Whoa-oh-oh [Bridge] Now it's been ten thousand years Man has cried a billion tears For what he never knew Now man's reign is through But through the eternal night The twinkling of starlight So very far away Maybe it's only yesterday [Chorus 1] In the year 2525 If man is still alive If woman can survive They may find [Chorus 2] In the year 3535 Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies...
