Zager & Evans- In the year 2525

2 comentarios:

  1. Si de los mayas y de su agorera profecía hubiera dependido, esta canción no habría visto nunca la luz. Que según esa tan pesimista predicción, parece ser que el mundo va a acabarse ya mismo...el 21 de Diciembre que viene, sin ir más lejos..., y esta canción que nos interpretaba el dúo americano de música pop-rock fomado por Denny Zager y Rick Evans en 1969, nos relata futuras y lejanas peripecias del hombre y de la mujer en los próximos miles de años, a contar desde 2525...
    “En el ańo 2525
    si el hombre sigue vivo
    si la mujer puede sobrevivir
    se pueden encontrar...”

  2. In the year 2525, if man is still alive
    If woman can survive, they may find
    In the year 3535

    Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lie
    Everything you think, do and say
    Is in the pill you took today

    In the year 4545
    You ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes
    You won't find a thing to chew
    Nobody's gonna look at you

    In the year 5555
    Your arms hangin' limp at your sides
    Your legs got nothin' to do
    Some machine's doin' that for you

    In the year 6565
    You won't need no husband, won't need no wife
    You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too
    From the bottom of a long glass tube

    In the year 7510
    If God's a-coming, He oughta make it by then
    Maybe He'll look around Himself and say
    "Guess it's time for the Judgement Day"

    In the year 8510
    God is gonna shake His mighty head
    He'll either say, "I'm pleased where man has been"
    Or tear it down, and start again

    In the year 9595
    I'm kinda wonderin' if man is gonna be alive
    He's taken everything this old earth can give
    And he ain't put back nothing

    Now it's been ten thousand years, man has cried a billion tears
    For what, he never knew, now man's reign is through
    But through eternal night, the twinkling of starlight
    So very far away, maybe it's only yesterday
