Lyrics:
I wanna talk about the Old School Future
The kind that people used to talk about
Where everybody’s gonna come together
Across the cosmos we’ll be reaching out
Nowdays you always hear a different story
They say we’re heading to dystopia
I’ll let U in on a little secret
The future’s here right now

So baby get back
To the Old School Future
Get back
To where we belong
Get back
To the Old School Future
The Old School Future, yeah
Cuz we doing it

Back on the topic of the Old School Future
That’s one of many possibilities
If every choice we make alters the timeline
I’ll create the future that I wanna see
I’ll make a journey to a distant galaxy
I’ll turn the bass up in my flying car
I’ll save the planet from certain destruction cuz
The future’s here right now
