"It's A Wrap" lyrics
When I was young, everybody thought
That the future was gonna be like the plot
Of a sci-fi show with a friendly robot
Living in your home and a flying car
In every garage and the movie stars
Living in big apartments on Mars
And the cats and dogs, and the fish and the frogs
And the humans would just get along
Should we close it all down?
Is it over now?
Was it all a waste of time?
Should we call it a wrap?
In the final days in the final hours
When the media cowers under meteor showers
And the babel towers come a crumbling down
And the biggest clowns wear the biggest crowns
Will I have regrets over things unsaid?
Will I wish I had told you everything in my head?
When the galaxy spins like a tornado wind
Will I wonder then what might have been?
Should we close it all down?
Is it over now?
Was it all a waste of time?
Should we call it a wrap?
Should we close it all down?
Is it over now?
Was it all a waste of time?
Should we call it a wrap?
Little boy, little boy
Little boy, little boy
I do believe you are mistaken
Little boy, little boy
Abandoned hopes and dreams forsaken
Little boy, little...
Confronted all the hoarders of the joy of this world, little boy
Little boy, little-
Yes, I've seen the glory of the time
And it brings me joy
But when I see the conveyor slowing down
It generally starts to annoy...
This little boy
Little man, little man
When did you lose your optimism?
Little man, little man
And start to belch this pessimism?
Little man, little man
Have you taken and accounted obstacles that were surmounted, little man?
Little man, little-
Yes, I've seen the hurdles that were leapt
Those moments I do enjoy
But when I see the conveyor running back
It makes me want to destroy...
To destroy...
To destroy
In the final days, in the darkest hours
When the moon has turned bright red
When the media cowers under meteor showers
Shall we just put it all to bed?
Game over now, as we shut it all down
'Cause it's time to cut into the crap
It's the end of days in this purple haze
It's time to call it a wrap...
That the future was gonna be like the plot
Of a sci-fi show with a friendly robot
Living in your home and a flying car
In every garage and the movie stars
Living in big apartments on Mars
And the cats and dogs, and the fish and the frogs
And the humans would just get along
Should we close it all down?
Is it over now?
Was it all a waste of time?
Should we call it a wrap?
In the final days in the final hours
When the media cowers under meteor showers
And the babel towers come a crumbling down
And the biggest clowns wear the biggest crowns
Will I have regrets over things unsaid?
Will I wish I had told you everything in my head?
When the galaxy spins like a tornado wind
Will I wonder then what might have been?
Should we close it all down?
Is it over now?
Was it all a waste of time?
Should we call it a wrap?
Should we close it all down?
Is it over now?
Was it all a waste of time?
Should we call it a wrap?
Little boy, little boy
Little boy, little boy
I do believe you are mistaken
Little boy, little boy
Abandoned hopes and dreams forsaken
Little boy, little...
Confronted all the hoarders of the joy of this world, little boy
Little boy, little-
Yes, I've seen the glory of the time
And it brings me joy
But when I see the conveyor slowing down
It generally starts to annoy...
This little boy
Little man, little man
When did you lose your optimism?
Little man, little man
And start to belch this pessimism?
Little man, little man
Have you taken and accounted obstacles that were surmounted, little man?
Little man, little-
Yes, I've seen the hurdles that were leapt
Those moments I do enjoy

When the moon has turned bright red
When the media cowers under meteor showers

'Cause it's time to cut into the crap
It's the end of days in this purple haze
It's time to call it a wrap...
