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

Somewhere just between the past and somethin' dawnin' new
There's a break in the chain
There's 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're 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
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
Gmmee 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

Once a beautiful Miss America married Mr. Right
Had a little baby boy 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
