There's no such thing as the future

Rejecting the concept of a tangible, predictable future.

It's all dials and lofty dreams calendars and tv screens

Describing the future as a combination of controllable elements (dials), ambitious aspirations (lofty dreams), scheduled events (calendars), and media influences (tv screens).

There's no such thing as heroes just a bunch of ones and zeros

Challenging the notion of heroes, suggesting they are merely representations of binary code, possibly criticizing the oversimplification of complex human qualities.


There's no such thing as the future

Reiterating the denial of a concrete future.

Let science try to prove us wrong and we'll spend the extra effort

Mocking attempts by science to prove the existence of a future, emphasizing the importance of focusing on immediate concerns and actions.

Making plans and doing things that actually concern us

Advocating for making plans and engaging in activities that directly impact the present and are relevant to the individuals involved.


There's no such thing as the future

Continuing to refute the concept of a future, suggesting it has been debunked and replaced by memories.

It's been found out and destroyed now it's nothing more than memories

Watch the airplanes overhead as they go flying round in circles

Observing airplanes in circular flight patterns, possibly symbolizing the repetitive and cyclical nature of life or actions.


There's no such thing as the future

Reiterating the absence of a future, emphasizing the importance of living in the present moment.

Now's the only time we've got and even that won't last much longer

Highlighting the transient nature of time, suggesting that the present is the only time available, and even it is fleeting.

But if we make the most of it we might not need any more

Encouraging the idea that maximizing the current moment may render the need for a future irrelevant.


Let's not waste our time

Advising against wasting time and urging to make the most of the present.

Quit stealing all my lines

There's no such thing as the future...
