Future Fever

[Verse] In the shadows I walk alone They whisper hey aren't you the one But they don't see the heart I bare Kind and gentle it's so unfair [Verse 2] Helped a stranger just the other day Gave my love in an honest way But the rumors they keep comin' 'round Labeled me before they hear the sound [Chorus] Ain't me gee not the guy you see I'm more than what they say to be Ain't me gee I’ve been true and real Don’t they know the kindness I feel [Verse 3] Look in my eyes see through the lies I'm just a soul on a humble rise Every gesture every gentle move Misunderstood with something to prove [Verse 4] Walking down these empty lanes Accused of playing foolish games No matter what I say or do They just believe what isn’t true [Bridge] Hey girl look at me No mask no deceit I’m right here with a heart that's pure Not what they say can't you be sure [Intro] [Upbeat rock and roll piano riff] [Verse 1] (Woke up this mornin’, head full of dreams) Future callin’, not what it seems (Got a ticket for a time machine ride) Gonna shake this town from side to side [Chorus] (I got that future fever, baby) It’s burnin’ in my soul (Future fever, darlin’) It’s gonna rock ‘n’ roll [Verse 2] (Met a girl from 2525) Man, oh man, she’s so alive (She showed me dancin’ I never knew) Now I’m twisted all through and through [Bridge] (The clock’s spinnin’, spinnin’ around) Yesterday’s lost, can’t be found (Tomorrow’s knockin’ at my door) Gotta answer, can’t ignore [Verse 3] (Jumped in my rocket, painted bright red) Cosmic highway straight ahead (Stars are boppin’ to a brand new beat) Even the moon’s movin’ to the heat [Chorus] (I got that future fever, baby) It’s burnin’ in my soul (Future fever, darlin’) It’s gonna rock ‘n’ roll [Verse 4] (But hold on tight, here comes a twist) The future’s got me in a mist (My rocket’s failin’, engines die) Stranded in the starry sky [Bridge] (Floatin’, driftin’ in outer space) Lost in time, without a place (Crazy rhythms in my head) Are they real or am I dead? [Verse 5] (Then I hear it, a distant song) It pulls me in, oh so strong (It’s the blues from way back when) Bringin’ me back home again [Final Chorus] (That future fever’s cooled down, baby) But the music’s in my soul (Got a new fever, darlin’) It’s the real rock ‘n’ roll [Outro] (So listen children, here’s what I say) Don’t chase tomorrow, live today (‘Cause the greatest sound you’ll ever know) Is the beat of now, the real rock ‘n’ roll [End]
