What would you do with the power to see the future and predict upcoming events?
Would you save the world? Would you destroy it?
Would I? Wood eye?

lyrics

HOOK:
there will be a day
there will come a time
it will arrive
would you really want to see it?

VERSE 1:
if i really could prognosticate,
would i try to run across my fate?
if i really had the e. s. p.,
would i work to see what’s next for me?
if i had a real crystal ball,
would i peer in to the mystical?
if i really drank my tea leaves looser,
would i let my grandma read my future?
if i really threw some chicken bones,
would i find out something i should know?
if i really tossed the i ching,
would i think that god is speaking?

HOOK:
there will be a day
there will come a time
it will arrive
would you really want to see it?

VERSE 2:
if i really was so accurate,
my predictions become facts each day...
if i really saw it all ahead
would awareness work in stalling death?
seeing things not yet occurred,
could i halt a scourge across the earth?
identify real psychopaths,
with plenty time to fight them back?
would i implement MY biases,
with a cultural or science twist?
would i get the scoop about religion,
hide the proof, foment division?

HOOK:
there will be a day
there will come a time
it will arrive
would you really want to see it?
