Get ready for the future

In the future there will be so much going on
That no-one will be able to keep up

David Byrne, In the Future, The Knee Plays, 1985

I want the future now
I want to hold it in my hands
. . .

 

I want the future now
I'm young, and it's my right.
I want a reason to be proud.
I want to see the light.
I want the future now,
I want to see it on the screen,
I want to break the bounds:
make life worth more than dreams

Peter Hammill, The Future Now, 1978

Get ready for the future

It is murder

Things are going to slide

Leonard Cohen, The Future, 1992
