Ten Years After --- Year 3000 Blues

Like the Idiocracy, The Year 3000 Blues seems to have arrived early. The album was released in the early 70's.


 







Lyrics:

hey took me down the grading station

And they classified me zed

'cause of over population

They told me that I would soon be dead



But I slipped out of the force field

And hid beneath the monorail

But the automatic blood hounds

Lord, they're soon hot along my trail



Now if I had been a scholar

With computer working hard

Then my molecular structure

Would not be on the grader's card



So, I know that they will get me

Put my index in the brain

Then, the atoms of my body

Will be disposed of, lordy, down the drain



They took me down the grading station

And they classified me zed

'cause of over population

They told me that I would soon be dead
