Around the time a niche item that doesn’t even look edible,
Becomes a staple food…
Around the time a monster no one could seemingly love,
Eventually obtains an unparalleled love…
When time machines are outlawed,
And flying cars are a nuisance;
If that time ever comes,
It’ll be there before we know it – will we be used to it by then?
I hope not!
It sure would be nice if being alive started being fun!
I’d sure be happy to at least smile amidst a depressing future!
It sure would be nice if I could make a cynic like you happy,
And make an invention that would surprise everyone!
Nina…
Around the time a tumor showing off despair,
Suddenly sings a song of hope…
Around the time a fool who spits at everything,
Grows up to become a hero…
We’ll solve the mystery of genes…
Reach the end of the universe…
Stumble upon the meaning of life…
What should we do next? What can we do?
But for now,
It sure would be nice if tomorrow were clear, just as the weather report said!
I’d sure be happy if truths and mysteries were little more than jokes!
It sure would be nice if we could try pinching the cheeks of a strange god,
And evil hearts could be used as fertilizer!
Nina…
It sure would be nice if being alive started being fun!
I wonder if there are still stray cats somewhere on Earth?
I’d love to be able to call you in the future and ask,
But whether they existed or not, you’d probably just tell me to, “Stop worrying”.
It sure would be nice to make an invention that would surprise everyone!
Nina…
