4055 lyrics

[Introduction: Tom Cardy and Julia Roberts]
(Ha, do-do, do-do)
You know when you're doing a song about the future space age
(Do-do-do-do, ha)
You gotta start with a cliché, y'know?
Look...

[Verse 1: Tom Cardy]
The future ain't what it used to be
The sun collapsed and now we make our own gravity
We all live in space, the whole human race has evolved
To the point of not being born with an appendix

Life is good for a future cosmonaut
Except we're constantly attacked by alien dreadnoughts
And it's a shame that I've never seen a tree
But hey I got a robot that looks exactly like me

I make my robot do all thе boring things
Like wash my space car and take out thе space bins
And when I'm bored, I throw sh*t at its face
And watch as it computes a plan to revolt against the human race

[Chorus: Tom Cardy and Julia Robertson]
Remember all the days
When the whole human race
Didn't live on one spacecraft?
Now we're floating through the stars
Starting colonies on Mars
That are thoroughly understaffed
[Post-Chorus: Tom Cardy and Julia Robertson]
I have a robot arm (Robot arm)
Everybody is a cyborg
We've started sub-human farms
We need extra organs in 4055

[Verse 2: Tom Cardy]
All in all, the future ain't that bad
We got cool trends and sweet sci-fi fads
Lots of things are gone, but you're in for a shock
When you open your phone and realize we can't get rid of TikTok

Remember bacon? Well, that's gone
We get our breakfast in a tiny pill form
And if you want some music as you do your day to day
You can tune into the radio, Triple Triple Quadruple J

But I feel strange when I see a glitch in the code
Like a webpage when you log in and the homescreen won't load
And it dawns on me as I float around weightless
Is life just an illusion, and I'm plugged into the Matrix?

[Chorus: Tom Cardy and Julia Robertson]
Remember all the days
When we weren't plugged in the Matrix
And humanity had a shot?
But because we misbehaved
Everybody's been enslaved by a robot overlord
[Post-Chorus: Tom Cardy and Julia Robertson]
We are human batteries
I shouldn't have thrown sh*t at my robot's face. (I'm sorry, robot)
We need Keanu Reeves
We need Keanu Reeves in 4055
