Welcome To The Future

When I was ten years old
I remember thinkin' how cool it would be
When we were goin' on an eight hour drive
And I could just watch TV

And I'd have given anything
To have my own Pac-Man game at home
I used to have to get a ride down to the arcade
Now I've got it on my phone

Hey, glory, glory, hallelujah
Welcome to the future

My grandpa was in World War II
He fought against the Japanese
He wrote a hundred letters to my grandma
Mailed 'em from his base in the Philippines

I wish they could see this now
[Incomprehensible]
'Cause I was on a video chat this morning
With a company in Tokyo

Hey, everyday is a revolution
Welcome to the future

Hey, look around it's all so clear
Hey, wherever we would go and when we
Hey, so many things I never thought I'd see
Happening right in front of me

I had a friend in school
Running back on a football team
They burned a cross in his front yard
For asking out the home coming queen

I thought about him today
And everybody who's seen what he's seen
From a woman on a bus
To a man with a dream

Hey, wake up Martin Luther
Welcome to the future
Hey, glory, glory, hallelujah
Welcome to the future
