In The Year 2525 (Exordium & Terminus) - Zager & Evans

Written by：Rick Evans

In the year

Twenty five twenty five

If man is still alive

If woman can survive

They may find

In the year

Thirty five thirty five

Ain't gonna need to tell the truth

Tell no lies

Everything you think do and say

Is in the pill

You took today

In the year

Forty five forty five

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

In the year

Fifty five fifty five

Your arms are hanging limp at your side

You legs got nothing to do

Some machine's doing that for you

In the year

Sixty five sixty five

Ain't gonna need no husband

Won't need no wife

You'll pick your son

Pick your daughter too

From the bottom of a long glass tube

Whoa oh

In the year

Seventy five ten

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

In the year

Eighty five ten

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

In the year

Ninety five ninety five

I'm kinda wondering

If man is gonna be alive

He's taken everything

This old earth can give

And he ain't put back nothing

Woah oh

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 throught eternal night

The twinkling of starlight

So very far away

Maybe it's only yesterday

In the year

Twenty five twenty five

If man is still alive

If woman can survive

They may find

In the year thirthy five thirthy five
