When I think about the wonderous days to come And a better world for everyone I get hosed I get hosed Hosed by the future When I think of all the progress that we made And there's no need to be afraid I get hosed I get hosed Hosed by the future

On the wrong side of history again On the wrong side along with all my friends And no one wants to crawl Through someone else's Golden Age And no one wants to die On the next to the last page

When I'm sure that goodness shall prevail And the fascist thugs will surely fail I get hosed I get hosed Hosed by the future When I think the greedy turds will pay the price And everything is going to be nice I get hosed I get hosed Hosed by the future

On the wrong side of history again On the wrong side along with all my friends And no one wants to crawl Through someone else's Golden Age And no one wants to die On the next to the last page

Buggy whips and DAT And Betamax and me New Coke and Van Halen III And tulip bulbs and me

When I think about the hearts of average folks That they might rise up and end this joke I get hosed I get hosed Hosed by the future When I do it for the sake of Future Days And consciousness might be raised I get hosed I get hosed Hosed by the future ________________________________ recorded at home by Tony Fitzgerald January 2020 © 2020 The Davis Baby Music (ASCAP)
