Jimmy Buffett The Ever Elusive Future
The ever elusive future
Ever elusive future
The ever elusive future's like a comet with a tail
That human stride lasso but we always seem to fail
The ever elusive future spins a hybrid with a slash
For fools and fortune tellers always looking for the cash
But there's always something lurking in the jungle
Better watch your step it's not a place to stumble
Something's movin', something's comin'
The ever elusive future
Ever elusive future
The ever elusive future is a script right from our past
Conjoining frogs and raptors that may leave the world aghast
The ever elusive future has no time to read fate
Creation, mother nature or who is the missing link
'Cause there's always something lurking in the jungle
It's getting hot, I'm feeling kinda fungle
Never sleepin', always creepin'
The ever elusive future
Ever elusive future
More then the strong survive who's gonna be alive
In a million years (in a million years)
How lucky can you get?
Life's a long shot yet but we're still here
The ever elusive future it just sowes the seeds of time
It's mission's been a secret no reason nor no rhyme
It's hiding in a wormhole or behind some distant moon
But the one thing you can count on it will be here fairly soon
And there's always something lurking in the jungle
Better watch your step it's not a place to stumble
Something's movin' something's comin'
The ever elusive future (ever elusive)
Ever elusive future (ever elusive)
The ever elusive future (not much to compare)
Ever elusive future (how do we get there?)
