Once a beautiful Miss America,
Married Mr. Right.
Had a little baby girl,
Born on a stormy night.
But that was once upon a time,
Now it's a brand new world.
Gimmee the future, gimmee the future,
Gimmee the future with a modern girl.
Gimmee the future, gimmee the future,
Gimmee the future with a modern girl.
Somewhere just between the past
And somethin' dawnin' new.
There's a break in the chain,
A skip in the clock,
Girl that's where I'm gonna find you.
Between the boy I was before
And what I'm gonna be.
There's a clash on the border,
A flame in the sky,
Girl that's where you gonna find me.
Can't ya hear the planet groanin',
Like a broken down machine.
Rusted with the guilty tears
Of fallen kings and queens.
But you and I stand innocent,
Baby it's a brand new world.
Gimme the future, gimmee the future,
Gimmee the future with a modern girl.
Gimmee the future, gimmee the future,
Gimmee the future with a modern girl.
(Gimmee the future, gimmee the future,
Gimmee the future with a modern girl.)
We're the son and the daughter on a new freeway,
(Gimmee the future, gimmee the future)
Laughin' while the road maps blow away,
(Gimmee the future with a modern girl)
We're the son and the daughter and we ain't afraid,
(Gimmee the future, gimmee the future)
Won't be makin' the mistakes our fathers made.
(Gimmee the future with a modern girl)
(Gimmee the future, gimmee the future,)
Oh gimmee the future with a modern girl.
(Gimmee the future, gimmee the future,)
Oh gimmee the future with a modern girl.
Once a beautiful Miss America,

Born on a stormy night.
But that was once upon a time,

Gimmee the future with a modern girl.
(Gimmee the future, gimmee the future,)
Gimmee the future with a modern girl.

Oh gimmee the future with a modern girl.

Oh won't you gimmee the future with a modern girl.
