We Can't Predict The Future
Wayne's Notes from the Album:
"This continues my rant about how beautiful and random and unknowable the nature of existence can be... and how some mysteries can never be unfolded... and how wonderful that is!!!"
"We Can't Predict The Future" is, along with "It Remained Unrealizable" and "The Switch That Turns Off The Universe," one of three original songs from 1999 that were broadcast as part of a Peel Session on BBC radio. These were all included on The Soft Bulletin 5.1.
"This continues my rant about how beautiful and random and unknowable the nature of existence can be... and how some mysteries can never be unfolded... and how wonderful that is!!!"
We can't predict the future
Or resist the inevitable urge to try
And we want to know the answers
To understand the infinitude of time
And if that's just the way it is
And all that will remain unchanged
We cannot rearrange all the universe to suit our ways
We can't predict the future
Or understand the infinitude of time and space
How long will it take before I can realize
Realize, realize, realize, realize
Realize, realize, realize
Or resist the inevitable urge to try
To understand the infinitude of time
And all that will remain unchanged
We cannot rearrange all the universe to suit our ways
Or understand the infinitude of time and space
How long will it take before I can realize
Realize, realize, realize, realize
Realize, realize, realize
