The Future Kid Lyrics

Like media images gone berserk
With video monitors refusing to work
We never understood anything we did
We were the future kid
Like computer banks about to explode
A lonely hitchhiker on a crowded road
Our lives were sold to the highest bid
We were the future kid
Technology... with a capital T
Methodology... with a capital Me
Long ago we lost the ability
To achieve personal stability
Long ago
We lost the ability to achieve

Withdrawal babies in need of a fix
TV junkies at the age of six
We can't remember where we kept things hid
We were the future kid
