The future never comes 'round here no more
It stays stuck away in the past
It doesn't dipsy and divy
For its dancing is all in the past.
Once there were dreams, and once there was hope
Once there was a future to come
But the dancing days are yesterdays
And tomorrow is only yesterday's fun.
(Note: Poem inspired by Yogi Berra, who said in better and more succinctly: "The future ain't what it used to be.")
(Second note: Alternate second verse:
Once there were dreams and once there was hope
Once there was a future to come
But the dancing days are yesterdays
And tomorrow is only yesterday's fun.)
