jack the lad (uk) - the third millennium lyrics

Loading...

oh as i was in the garden, i was planting out me beans
the sky betook an awful shade, the queerest what i’d seen
so i asked me next+door neighbour “am i going off me head?”
he says “oh no, it’s just the same like nostradamus said”

ah, well the year was ninety+nine and we had watched the systems fail
extinction of the species and the hunting of the whale
oh the wise men and the prophets, they had talked of turning back
ah, but sad to say, too late as all the crust began to crack

wake up, you lazy bum, for if you don’t slow down
you’ll never get to see the third millennium
oh the farmer and his wife have tried to save the human race
but the butcher is a murderer with no redeeming grace
ah, when the revolution came, it was a party to the fall
we left the land to reap the gold and rape the earth of all

oh me heart is full of sorrow as i cast me eyes about
the people are so weary where they used to sing and shout
well it’s really not surprising that disease is still so rife
their aching limbs atrophy while they lead an easy life

wake up, you lazy bum, for if you don’t slow down
you’ll never get to see the third millennium

oh this song was writ in heaven as is plain enough to see
me mates have gone the other way, they won’t be joining me
with their pockets full of money, they could not get through me door
i’d taken out insurance in the form of being poor

wake up, you lazy bum, for if you don’t slow down
you’ll never get to see the third millennium
you’ll never, never, ever, ever get to see the third millennium
