Future Racket from Future Racket by Future Racket

Here’s the future racket
Made of sugar and cream
An impossible dream
Here’s the future racket
Built to deceive
You can take it or leave it

I knew a girl with a crystal ball
She looked inside and said
Oh god I’m seeing red
But just before she could tell me all
I said I couldn’t pay
So she sent me away
Out into the street
On sensitive feet
Past thundering herds
Moving swiftly as birds
I nearly lost my head in the commotion
But then I recalled
What my father told me
Whenever I cried
He held me and sighed,
“The prophets all lied.
Abandon their plan.
Go on the attack.
Steal everything you can.
Give nothing back”

Here’s the future racket
Made of sugar and cream
An impossible dream
Here’s the future racket
Built to deceive
You can take it or leave it

A true magician will never lie
He’ll cheat you fair and square
Why else would you be there
The trick is not to reveal too much
So leave them wanting more
Then shove them out the door
Out into the street
On sensitive feet
Past thundering herds
Moving swiftly as birds
I sometimes lose my head in the commotion
But then I recall
What my father told me
Whenever I cried
He held me and sighed,
“The prophets all lied.
Abandon their plan.
Go on the attack.
Steal everything you can.
Give nothing back”

Here’s the future racket
Made of sugar and cream
An impossible dream
Here’s the future racket
Built to deceive
You can take it or leave it
