Someday Soon

Someday soon, we will take vacations on the moon

Someday soon, we will build great cities under water

Someday soon, we will create the ultimate human being

Someday soon, you will not believe in what you're seeing

Yet, they can't find a cure for a common cold

But they can reconstruct a face back to the young from the old

The cancer spreads, the AIDS develops in its victims

Science counts the costs in lives, the cause and not the cure succeeds

A child fights for life, in a state of confusion

Dragged up in a cesspit full of class 'A' illusions

The progress chart monitors, brilliant achievements

It's a world where technology easily outweighs bereavement

The market remains flooded with drugs that only suppress

Twenty types that all do the same thing, profit, and screw all the rest

Who drop dead in the queue, to receive operations?

As the Government reveal their new million pound sensation

Dancing at the policeman's ball again

We sing our songs of disgust, but they don't here a thing

With heads held up high they raise a toast to progression

And a record breaking turnover tenth year in succession

There stands a woman she has no face

Her baby cries out dying arms outstretched for embrace

They have no stake in the society that demands their respect

A world without any hope is all they can expect
