They've been spending most their lives living in a future paradise












Living in a pastime paradiseThey've been spending most their livesLiving in a pastime paradiseThey've been wasting most their livesGlorifying days long gone behindThey've been wasting most their daysIn remembrance of ignorance oldest praiseTell me who of them will come to beHow many of them are you and me

Dissipation Race Relations Consolation Segregation Dispensation Isolation Exploitation Mutilation Mutations Miscreation Confirmation... to the evils of the world

They've been spending most their livesLiving in a future paradiseThey've been spending most their livesLiving in a future paradiseThey've been looking in their mindsFor the day that sorrow's gone from timeThey keep telling of the dayWhen the Savior of love will come to stayTell me who of them will come to beHow many of them are you and me

Proclamation of Race Relations Consolation Integration Verification of Revelations Acclamation World Salvation Vibrations Simulation Confirmation… to the peace of the world

They've been spending most their livesLiving in a pastime paradiseThey've been spending most their livesLiving in a pastime paradiseThey've been spending most their livesLiving in a future paradiseThey've been spending most their livesLiving in a future paradiseWe've been spending too much of our livesLiving in a pastime paradiseLet's start living our livesLiving for the future paradisePraise to our livesLiving for the future paradiseShame to anyones livesLiving in a pastime paradise

[Stevie Wonder Pastime paradise in Songs in the key of life, 1976]
