One Thousand Year-Old Man (There’s A New World A-Comin’)

Lyrics

The war was over several hours ago And the future is speeding on Aluminum people There's a new world a-comin' A new world a-comin' Angel-like superior beings Myriads of galaxies Inhabited by intelligent beings The war is gone Now we're on the other side of the planet Visions from another lifetime The search for extra-terrestrial life Many tiny jeweled violet flowers Giant green waves dancing The paper-colored sun, the world at fun Sealed in darkness, waiting to be born (Waiting to be born) A new kind of light has rayed through a new openness A new kind of light has rayed through a new openness [spoken in an Indian accent] I swam through the slime and sludge of human degradation. Through the stinking, suffocating, pulsating throb of a heart, I catapulted the clear disk of intelligence into the void of heaven, where celestial beings revealed themselves and angels ministered unto me in the apex of Heaven! Oh, apes on heaven's earth, you will sprout a tail if you do not bind yourself this time, yayakayakababababadodododododooo... [sung] The war was over several hours ago And the future is speeding on Aluminum people There's a new world a-comin' A new world a-comin' Angel-like superior beings Myriads of galaxies Inhabited by intelligent beings The war is gone We're on the other side of the planet Visions from another lifetime The search for extra-terrestrial life Many tiny jeweled violet flowers Giant green waves dancing The paper-colored sun, the world at fun Sealed in darkness, waiting to be born (Waiting to be born) A new kind of light has rayed through a new openness A new kind of light has rayed through a new openness There's a new world a-comin' A new world a-comin' A new world a-comin'...
