I'm really worried about living 

How could it come to this ? 

Yeah, I really want to know about this" 

Is it like today ? Oh, ooh

How could it come to this? 

Yeah, I really wanna know about this" Is it like today ? Oh, ooh 

Then there came a day man backpacked and flew off of the planet 

He went to the moon (to the moon) 

Now he's off in space, fixing all of the problems

How could it come to this ?

Is it like today? Oh, ooh 

Many years ago man looked out through a glassless window 

Didn't know much, not much, but he saw
