Future Boy Lyrics
So future boy where are you from my time machine crashed over yonder.
Syphillis is a bitch but contracting HIV is much worse.
Why are you pushing info into me,
I have no need for it, I’m from the stars.
I thought you’d like to know the scoop
I’m taking babies back with me, yeah.
I’m taking them back home
so they can see there’s a much better place.
I’ve got a sister with an open mind and my friends are all junkies
But there still my friends, as long as they don’t use monkeys,
We enjoy the heat of stolen days in the summer of ’93.
Well the future boy said I’ve got friends but you know sometimes
it all depends on how tall they are against yourself.
I am the future boy
My friends have all gone and left me
so I decided to come here and see myself as a baby,
but it looks like I’m stuck here this time, oh shit,
I’m gonna miss my friends.
No your still the future boy,
Yes I’m still the future boy
We’ll build you a time machine to get back home.
Still the future boy…..
Well I’m still the future boy.
Syphillis is a bitch but contracting HIV is much worse.
Why are you pushing info into me,
I have no need for it, I’m from the stars.
I thought you’d like to know the scoop
I’m taking babies back with me, yeah.
I’m taking them back home
so they can see there’s a much better place.
I’ve got a sister with an open mind and my friends are all junkies
But there still my friends, as long as they don’t use monkeys,
We enjoy the heat of stolen days in the summer of ’93.
Well the future boy said I’ve got friends but you know sometimes
it all depends on how tall they are against yourself.
I am the future boy
My friends have all gone and left me
so I decided to come here and see myself as a baby,
but it looks like I’m stuck here this time, oh shit,
I’m gonna miss my friends.
No your still the future boy,
Yes I’m still the future boy
We’ll build you a time machine to get back home.
Still the future boy…..
Well I’m still the future boy.

I think this song is about someone who was in with a bunch of junkies but he wouldn’t join (‘Syphillis is a bitch but contracting HIV is much worse.’) them so they left him, he found new friends ‘but sometimes it all depends on how tall they all against yourself.’ The main character back in time represents looking back on his life and deciding when he was happier; trying to sane up with his junkie friends or trying to keep up with his new ones.
Or that’s what I get out of it, at least. Either way, it’s a great song.
