If man is still alive  
If woman can survive  
They may find

In the year 2020  
Ain’t gonna need to tell the truth, everything’s a lie  
Everything you think, do and say  
Is in the Fox News report you saw today

In the year 2020:  
The lil’wrekker will not get a new spring wardrobe.  
She will wear her old capris  
No one needs to see her knees  
She’ll wear her old shorts and tops  
While she gardens and mops.

Poor girl.

In the year 2020  
Looks like I won’t be getting a new car  
The old one has taken me so far.  
I really like the orange Subaru  
Though nothing rhymes but kangaroo.  
I still want to get another cat, but  
Not one that sounds like an old sackbut.

Now it’s not even been a year  
Men have cried a billion tears  
For what, we never knew  
No plan, oh man, we’re really screwed  
Goin’ to sleep most every night  
Wishing on some star so bright  
The end seems far away  
Oh I believe in yesterday

In the year 2020  
we gotta get someone new in the White House  
and get rid of the current louse  
a chance to build a better nation  
it’s no time to take a vacation
