Year 2000

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Today I saw a familiar face across the city street Sitting in the doorway with a blanket 'round his feet At first I didn't place him, the way you often do But the last time I'd seen him, he sat next to me at school [Chorus] Where will we be in the year 2000 When there's no more hunger and there's no more war? We're standing on the threshold of the year 2000 The time has come, we've had enough, we won't take anymore [Verse 2] We're different from our parents, they'll never understand We won't be fooled the way they were, the future's in our hands Remember how we promised as we said goodbye to school Like all good friends we'll meet again, I'll tell you what we'll do [Chorus] We'll meet again in the year 2000 There'll be no more hunger, there'll be no more war New Year's day in the year 2000 The time has come, we've had enough, we won't take anymore [Post-Chorus] Please don't take my word for it It's clear for all to see The world will be a better place In the twenty-first century [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Where will we be in the year 2000? There'll be no more hunger, there'll be no more war New Year's day in the year 2000 The time has come, we've had enough, we won't take anymore [Post-Chorus] Please don't take my word for it It's clear for all to see The world will be a better place In the twenty-first century [Chorus] Where will we be in the year 2000? There'll be no more hunger, there'll be no more war New Year's day in the year 2000 The time has come, we've had enough, we won't take anymore [Outro] Won't take anymore
