Lyrics
[verse]
Found an old machine down in my uncle's shed
Pressed a button, next thing lights flashed red
Woke up in a world that looked like ours but strange
Hover cars and skylines totally rearranged
[verse]
Met a girl who said she came from where I'm from
Said the future kept our story going on and on
Said we're still together thousands of years ahead
Same old jokes but flying instead of walking, she said
[chorus]
It's the year three thousand and we're still around
Robots singing all our favorite sound
Nothing's really changed except the scenery
Still the same you, still the same me
Year three thousand, future's kinda funny
Some things never change, not even for money
[verse]
She showed me a photo hanging on the wall
Same old faces, barely aged at all
Said the friendship that we're building right this minute
Somehow made it centuries and we're still in it
[verse]
I laughed and said that's wild, that's hard to believe
Said the future's got a lot of tricks up its sleeve
But if it's true, if we really make it there
I hope the friendship's still this easy, still this rare
[chorus]
It's the year three thousand and we're still around
Robots singing all our favorite sound
Nothing's really changed except the scenery
Still the same you, still the same me
Year three thousand, future's kinda funny
Some things never change, not even for money
[bridge]
Maybe it's just a dream, maybe it's all pretend
But I like the thought of us still being friends
A thousand years from now, a thousand years from here
Some stories are just built to last, that's clear
[chorus]
It's the year three thousand and we're still around
Robots singing all our favorite sound
Nothing's really changed except the scenery
Still the same you, still the same me
Year three thousand, future's kinda funny
Some things never change, not even for money
