So future boy where are you from
D7
My time machine crashed over yonder.
G
Syphillis is a bitch but contracting hiv is much worse.
D
Why are you pushing info into me,
D7 G
I have no need for it, I?m from the stars.
D
I thought you?d like to know your scoop
D7
I?m taking babies back with me, yeah.
G
I?m taking them back home so they can see
There?s a much better place.
D
I?ve got a sister with an open mind
D7 G
And my friends are all junkies but there still my friends,
D
As long as they don?t use monkeys,
D7 G
We enjoy the heat of stolen days in the summer of 93.
D
Well the future boy said I?ve got friends but you know sometimes
D7 G
It all depends on how tall they are against yourself.
D D7 G
I am the future boy, I am the future boy, I am the future boy, I am the future boy X 2
D
My friends have all gone and left me so I decided
D7 G
To come hear and see myself as a baby,
D D7
But it looks like I?m stuck hear this time, oh shit,
G
I?m gonna miss my friends.
D
No your still the future boy, yes I?m still the future boy
D7 G
We?ll build you a time machine to get back home.
D D7
G
Still the future boy, well I?m still the future boy, still the future boy, well im still
the future boy X2.

| I think this song is about someone who was in with a bunch of junkies but he wouldn’t join (‘Syphillis is a bitch but contracting HIV is much worse.’) them so they left him, he found new friends ‘but sometimes it all depends on how tall they all against yourself.’ The main character back in time represents looking back on his life and deciding when he was happier; trying to sane up with his junkie friends or trying to keep up with his new ones. Or that’s what I get out of it, at least. Either way, it’s a great song. | |
