2000 And None - Boole

Build me my thought guitar

I want my aero-car

I need my moving sidewalks

Talk to robots, every single day

Fly me into zero Gs

Blind me with LEDs

I long to be appeased by

Things that make me feel I’m more than man

Where is our odyssey

In this technology?

It’s such an oddity

Maybe I have blinked and missed it

Or maybe it’s a futuristic lie

No stars to align the date

No walking without weight

Endeared by fear of fate

So we abate it in a lazy dream

No towns floating in the air

No voyage, we don’t care

Ignore the poor and don’t explore

We just need pain and popcorn war

Where is our odyssey

In this technology?

It’s such an oddity

Maybe I have blinked and missed it

Or maybe it’s a futuristic lie

Explorers are whores for a warring nation

So settle for some sci-fi calculation

I want to reach for the sky

I want to find out why

Where is our odyssey

In this technology?

It’s such an oddity

Maybe I have blinked and missed it

Or maybe it’s a futuristic lie

Go on and promote our team

Have astronaut ice cream

You’re just a simulation

Show the nation every loyalty

Tune in for the laser wars

Try not to ponder Mars

Who needs it anyway?

I wonder what would Galileo say?
