lyrics

Hopeful Monsters

What you know is true
The future's coming back to you
There's a captain with no chart
To find a place for you to start

One mistake or one mutation
Will make the perfect situation
And save the day for those who saw
Their life contain the perfect flaw

The future, they say she waits for no one
But a million years from now
You won't believe the place she made
For you and me
And all that you have to do is go on
And make your big mistake and then create
The world you couldn't help but make

In this time of hopeful monsters
With cravings that are constant
But distant relatives will win
With smaller brains and bigger fins

The future, they say she waits for no one
But a million years from now
You won't believe the place she made
For you and me
And all that you have to do is go on
And make your big mistake
And then create

One million years is long
Complications will be gone
No one will sing this song

La la la la la la la la la.....

about

The Bushwick Book Club Brooklyn, New York

We started in January 2009 playing songs written in response to Kurt Vonnegut's Breakfast of Champions. We haven't stopped since. We've written & performed songs inspired by everything from "On The Origin of Species" to Dr. Seuss to Raymond Carver. There are BBCs popping up nationwide now. Bushwick Book Club Seattle started in 2010 & is run by Geoff Larson. Our nerdy dare-devilry knows no bounds. ... more
