My mother once told me on the phone that I should name my band, Millennium Because in the next few years the millennium Will be on everyone?s minds I told her that I agree, But I didn't like it as a band name. But it got me thinking About what I'll be doing [Chorus:] In 2040... In 2040, I'll reminisce about the Twentieth Century When we still wrote on pads of paper And humans still did all the cleaning In 2040, I'll be camping out with my grandsons Who'll have little gadgets to talk to their friends around the world They'll see them, smell them, hear them, feel them Communicate as if they're there. In 2040, my wife and I will take up games like, lawn bowling. We'll compete, interactively With couples our age in Africa And we'll compete, interactively With couples our age in Thailand [Chorus: x2] In 2040, I'll be camping out with my grandsons Who'll have little gadgets to talk to their friends around the world They'll see them, smell them, hear them, feel them Communicate as if they're there. They'll see them, smell them, hear them, feel them Communicate as if they're there. [Repeat Chorus]
