Lyrics Take a Look at the Future - Fair Warning

Take a Look at the Future

Midnight all around
Clouds of smog creeping through
Acid rain pouring down
It’s a nightmare come true
Faces pass dreaming blind
Drives me mad blows my mind
Take a look at the future the time is running
Take a look at yourself
Watching the world going down
Take a look at the future our time is coming
Can we hold the wheel of time, can we turn it round
Down south scenes of war
People starve, people die
Got no chance got no rights
Just the will to survive
Wasted lives wasted land
Don’t you see, where it ends
Take a look at the future the time is running
Take a look at yourself
Watching the world going down
Take a look at the future our time is coming
Can we hold the wheel of time, can we turn it round
There’s a place out in space
Used to be paradise
Now the time’s running out
Just to keep it alive
Take a look at the future …
A spell lies hard on this world
We got to break it
If we start changing ourselves
We’re bound to make it
