The Future

Lyrics

"I'm not gonna kill you
 I want you to do me a favor
 I want you to tell all your friends about me."
 "What are you?"
 "I'm BATMAN!"
 I've seen the future and it will be
 I've seen the future and it works
 And if there's life after, we will see
 So I can't go like a jerk
 Systematic overthrow of the underclass
 Hollywood conjures images of the past
 New world needs spiritually.That will last
 I've seen the future and it will be
 I've seen the future and it will be
 I've seen the future and it works
 And if there's life after, we will see
 So I can't go like a jerk
 Yellow Smiley offers me X
 Like he's drinking seven up
 I would rather drink 6 razor blades
 Razor blades from a paper cup
 He can't understand, I say 2 tough
 It's just that I've seen the future
 And boy it's rough
 ahh
 I've seen the future and it will be
 I've seen the future and it works
 And if there's life after, we will see
 So U can't go like a jerk
 No, no
 ♪
 I've seen the future and it will be
 Wait a minute
 ♪
 Pretty pony standing on the avenue
 Flashin' a loaded pistol, 2 dumb 2 be true
 Somebody told him playin' cops and robbers was cool
 Would our rap have been different if we only knew?
 I've seen the future and it will be
 I've seen the future and it works
 If there's life after, we will see
 Don't go out like a jerk
 ♪
 Systematic overthrow of the underclass
 Hollywood conjures images of the past
 New world needs spiritually. That will last
 I've seen the future and it will be
 oh yeah
 I've seen the future and it will be
 I've seen the future and it will be
 ♪
 ohh
 I've seen the future and it will be
 ♪
 I've seen the future and it will be
 I've seen the future and it will be
 "Think about the future"
