First time I heard this song I got hooked. While the lyrics can be seen as prophetic, in the 50 years or so since its release many of the prophesies are no longer part of fiction. I understand for the generations alive in the 60s it may have seemed as cloning and test tube babies would not happen in the next millennia. Yet today machines do a lot of the work for us and "our legs have nothing to do" since we drive or ride a bus, we seem to be loosing the ability to think for ourselves (even thought we do not take a pill with the days thoughts), we seem to follow the mass media and take their word for everything. I myself thought 20 years ago that walkie talkies were as close as we would get to the "beam me up Scottie" wireless devices (cell phones). |
