Soft Cell

Happiness Not Included


1999, A. D
More than a generation away
and yet dreams travel faster than light
And even now, scientists
and planners are shaping the lives of our children
who will live in the twenty-first century


I remember a past
That told us of a future
Rocket ships and flying cars
All the people lived on Mars
Boys and Girls all look the same
In PVC like leather
Auto-controls to clean the house
And even change the weather


Pills rеplaced the sex act
Wе all felt so much better
Hover bikes and monorails
Electricity that never fails
Sterilized and neutralized
Living in a bubble
RoboCops with laser beams
To dispel any trouble


Happy, happy, happy
Never ever crying
We never had a problem
With state-assisted dying
Bland-on-bland and hand-in-hand
No killing or demeaning
A better life with little strife
And very little meaning

I loved your shiny uniform
Moulded 'round your uni-breast
for mobile homes
And unisex for dress
We took a trip 'round Venus
And ate by intravenous
Saturn had the answer
For every space romancer


Where did all our hopes go?
All our naïve dreams go
Were they just science-fiction stories?
We'll never really know
We tried to teach the world to sing
We only war and famine bring
Don't kill them with your laser beam
And turn them into Soylent Green

Happy, happy, happy
Never ever crying
We never had a problem
With state-assisted dying
Bland-on-bland and hand-in-hand
No killing or demeaning
A better life with little strife
And very little meaning

Science-fiction stories
Told us of our future
Science-fiction stories
Told us of our future
Science-fiction stories
Told us of our future
Science-fiction stories
Told us of our future

And even now, scientists and planners
are shaping the lives of our children
who will live in the twenty-first century

Compositor: Marc Almond and David Ball
