Dear Science

(专辑： This Was Tomorrow - 2012)

Yo, oi

It goes science, yeah science is amazing
But not to me though 'cause I am sick of waiting
I've been patient, I really have, I've been reasonable
Now it's time to say what I needed too
Dear science, cheers for the iPods
White goods, yeah, thank you for the cyborgs
Top work on the light bulb
That was quite cool, but where's my hoverboard?
Yeah, I mean I know you've been busy
But no hoverboards just seems a bit piss-weak
I got a brand new computer and a big screen
I guess Back to the Future was a dick-tease
And I can't be the only one
Or maybe everyone forgot, but I am holding on
The hovercraft was a solid start
Shoulda stuck with it, hoverboard, where the fuck is it?

I just wanna let you know you let me down
I said I just wanna let you know you let me down
I said when I was just a kid at a tender age
I was thinking about tomorrow and them better days
I just wanna let you know you let me down

Look, it goes, robots doing jobs that we don't want
Botox women looking more like robots
It's so odd, everybody's getting nose jobs
Looking more like aliens with our clothes off
Hold up, I just had a new thought
What if UFOs are just us from the future
Coming back in time to sight see or might be to snatch women?
Tell 'em to bring some hoverboards back with 'em
When I was a kid I nearly threw a fit
I got a skateboard, (shit) I was furious
Like... what's the deal?
What the hell am I supposed to do with this?
It's got wheels, yeah I can't gleam the cube with this
Man, science'll sort it out hopefully
I don't wanna roll around the ground like a nobody
I wanna soar upon a board made of pure science
I am still saving up my dollars for a hoverboard

I just wanna let you know you let me down
I said I just wanna let you know you let me down
I said when I was just a kid at a tender age
I was thinking about tomorrow and them better days
I just wanna let you know you let me down

Hey, hey, little girl, look, I'm-I'm being chased
By this Biff dude, um, I need to borrow your little
Scooter thing, chuck us that (hey!) rip
There goes your handlebars, oooh bam, hoverboard

You can take a jet pack when the jets packed
A rocket with a chest strap seems like a death trap
So forget that, just gimme the damn hoverboard
And I won't have to do another monologue
The other day I drew a little rough design on a serviette
So now all you have to do is make it work and shit
Just get some magnets and a piece of wood and glue 'em on
But I'm not trying to tell you people how to do your job
Just keep the drawings and I'll be back in the morning
To check whether you're dawdling, you're sure to win awards for it
The most awesomest idea since the DeLorean
Be sure to try to make one to travel over water with
And yeah I thought I saw 'em on Beyond 2000
And I'm pretty sure that we're beyond that now man
I know I'm rambling but fucking hell, science
I just want a hoverboard before I'm too old to ride it

I just wanna let you know you let me down
I said I just wanna let you know you let me down
I said when I was just a kid at a tender age
I was thinking about tomorrow and them better days
I just wanna let you know you let me down

They bombarding us with long articles
About the Hadron Collider, trying to find the God particle
And everybody's arguing about whether or not
To clone people or keep it to farm yard animals, shit
Double 'em up, triple 'em, fuck the discipline
Grab a bunch of rabbits and slap all the lipstick on 'em you want
Yeah, maybe high heels to match
That's what playing God is for, hoverboards

I just wanna let you know you let me down
I said I just wanna let you know you let me down
I said when I was just a kid at a tender age
I was thinking about tomorrow and them better days
I just wanna let you know you let me down
