It's getting very close to midnight
The big old clock is going to strike
But we just keep on fumbling onward
We don't care to try or think about the ways to make it right
We spend like demons, never caring
That our kids will pay the price
We just blindly trust the feeling
That no matter what we do, something, some power will make it right
Living just for today is a fool's way
We all surely only listen
To the news we want to hear
And 'the truth' is now fragmented
We keep our tribes close, and we give only those in them, all our ears
Living just for today is not the way
We're just day dreaming away
We only care about today
And when our just tomorrows come our sins will rain on everyone
No stops to think our lifestyle
Slowly fills our world with crud
We're quickly killing every species
We won't think about it, not until our homes are under flood
Living just for today, the day will come we all will pay
It's so easy to see only things right in front of us
But our world isn't endless; our children will be cursing us, ahh
Living - thinking - just for today, is the fool's way
We're just day dreaming away
We only care about today
And when our just tomorrows come our sins will rain on everyone
When Florida's just a reef and there's no ice left in the sea
The storms and hurricanes will come, we'll not be kissed by the sun
And when our final judgment comes, we'll have to admit we were dumb
