lyrics

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 spirituality that will last
I've seen the future and it will be

Tory smiley asks for my X
Grits are giving heaven up
I would rather take my living wage
A living wage, than a paper cut
He can't understand, I say to tough
It's just that I've seen the future
And boy it's rough

I've seen the future and it will be
Waitaminute.

Petty police standing on the avenue
Flashin' a loaded pistol, to dumb to be true
Somebody told him playin' cops and robbers was cool
Would our rap have been different if we only knew?

Systematic overthrow of the underclass
A new white right conjures images of the past
New world needs a new economy 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
If there's life after, we will see
Don't go out like a jerk
