about

Optimism in crisis.

lyrics

2020 Vision

Then there’s that song you sing when you’ve made your best mistake
You’ve exposed the human race as a doomed disaster and a hopeless case
Well, there ain’t no cloud allowed to rain on this ticker-tape parade
Or the motorcade, while we smile and wave
Clap your hands! Celebrate!

2020 Vision! We’ve got 2020 Vision! 2020 Vision! We’ve got 2020
Vision! 2020 Vision! We’ve got 2020 Vision!

Not even half way through, but Hey! Don’t we get some prize
For somehow being alive in the dark tunnel where canaries die
And I know this list of things-to-don’t is longer than it’s wise
To change our scene, but before we start,
Show em’ how tall you are!

2020 Vision! We’ve got 2020 Vision! 2020 Vision! We’ve got 2020 Vision!
2020 Vision! We’ve got 2020 Vision! 2020 Vision! We’ve got 2020 Vision!

Ain’t it funny how we see so clearly when the rain is gone, that to carry on
We’re gonna need to use our thinking caps!
We’re gonna need to dance to bring the water back!

And now I paint my garden with a brush I bought at Sears
In the color of your eyes; a secret message for the butterflies
And I hope you understand that I’m just shooting from my hip
Won’t loose my grasp on the where and how
Clap your hands together now!

2020 Vision! We’ve got 2020 Vision!
