Lyrics:Paul Jacobs/Sarah Durkee Music:Paul Jacobs/Sarah Durkee Once a beautiful Miss America married Mr. Right Had a little baby girl born on a stormy night But that was once upon a time now it's a brand new world Gimmee the future, Gimmee the future Gimmee the future with a modern girl Somewhere just between the past and somethin' dawnin' new There's a break in the chain There's a skip in the clock Girl that's where I'm gonna find you Between the boy I was before and what I'm gonna be There's a clash on the border, a flame in the sky Girl that's where you're gonna find me Can't ya hear the planet groanin' like a broken down machine Rusted with the guilty tears of fallen kings and queens But you and I stand innocent, baby it's a brand new world Gimmee the future, gimmee the future Gimmee the future with a modern girl We're the son and the daughter on a new freeway Gimmee the future, gimmee the future Laughin' while the road maps blow away Gimmee the future with a modern girl We're the son and the daughter and we ain't afraid Gimmee the future, gimmee the future Won't be makin' the mistakes our fathers made Gimmee the future with a modern girl Gimmee the future, gimmee the future Once a beautiful Miss America married Mr. Right Had a little baby boy born on a stormy night But that was once upon a time now it's a brand new world Gimmee the future, Gimmee the future Gimmee the future with a modern girl
