Soon all the boomers will be dead
We'll all have phones inside our heads
And the 20th century will finally die
Lasted more than a century
Cast a long shadow on you and me
Soon the 20th century will make good on goodbye
We'll turn our heads to look where we are going
and step out blindly into the unknowing
Utopia, dystopia, both growing
Sometimes we'll think we glimpse a ghost
Our inland empires on new coast
The artifacts around us like a blanket
As we build betwixt the bones we'll softly sigh:
"You were good, you were long
You were full of cars and bombs
We thought you might be our last one,
Now you've died"
