Golden visions flash across the silver screen
Passing fancies dance through fashion magazines
Let me close my eyes and dream
Take me to a future scene
It'll be a better world when I wake up Monday morning

It's the future now
It's the future now
Don't turn back, move ahead it's the future now

On the fault line people live from day to day
Come tomorrow we'll all dine on silver trays
Let me close my eyes and dream
Take me to a future scene
Such a pretty world when I wake up Monday morning

It's the future now
It's the future now
Don't turn back, move ahead it's the future now

Heat of passion bursts in flames out in the streets
Cold glass towers turn to dust beneath my feet
I open up my eyes and scream
It's not the way it's supposed to be
Will there be a world at all when I wake up Monday morning

It's the future now
It's the future now
Don't turn back, move ahead it's the future now
Don't turn back, move ahead it's the future now
Don't turn back, move ahead it's the future now
