Dear Science

[Ad-Libs]

Yo, oi

[Verse 1]

It goes science, yeah science is amazing

But not to me though 'cause I am sick of waiting

I've been patient, I really have, I've been reasonable

Now it's time to say what I needed too

Dear science, cheers for the iPods

White goods, yeah, thank you for the cyborgs

Top work on the light bulb

That was quite cool, but where's my hoverboard?

Yeah, I mean I know you've been busy

But no hoverboards just seems a bit piss-weak

I got a brand new computer and a big screen

I guess Back to the Future was a dick-tease

And I can't be the only one

Or maybe everyone forgot, but I am holding on

The hovercraft was a solid start

Shoulda stuck with it, hoverboard, where the fuck is it?

[Chorus]

I just wanna let you know you let me down

I said I just wanna let you know you let me down

I said when I was just a kid at a tender age

I was thinking about tomorrow and them better days

I just wanna let you know you let me down

[Verse 2]

Look, it goes, robots doing jobs that we don't want

Botox women looking more like robots

It's so odd, everybody's getting nose jobs

Looking more like aliens with our clothes off

Hold up, I just had a new thought

What if UFOs are just us from the future

Coming back in time to sight see or might be to snatch women?

Tell 'em to bring some hoverboards back with 'em

When I was a kid I nearly threw a fit

I got a skateboard, (shit) I was furious

Like.. what's the deal?

What the hell am I supposed to do with this?

It's got wheels, yeah I can't gleam the cube with this

Man, science'll sort it out hopefully

I don't wanna roll around the ground like a nobody

I wanna soar upon a board made of pure science

I am still saving up my dollars for a hoverboard

[Chorus]

I just wanna let you know you let me down

I said I just wanna let you know you let me down

I said when I was just a kid at a tender age

I was thinking about tomorrow and them better days

I just wanna let you know you let me down

[Interlude]

Hey, hey, little girl, look, I'm—I’m being chased

By this Biff dude, um, I need to borrow your little

Scooter thing, chuck us that (hey!) rip

There goes your handlebars, oooh bam, hoverboard

[Verse 3]

You can take a jet pack when the jets packed

A rocket with a chest strap seems like a death trap

So forget that, just gimme the damn hoverboard

And I won't have to do another monologue

The other day I drew a little rough design on a serviette

So now all you have to do is make it work and shit

Just get some magnets and a piece of wood and glue 'em on

But I'm not trying to tell you people how to do your job

Just keep the drawings and I'll be back in the morning

To check whether you're dawdling, you're sure to win awards for it

The most awesomest idea since the DeLorean

Be sure to try to make one to travel over water with

And yeah I thought I saw 'em on Beyond 2000

And I'm pretty sure that we're beyond that now man

I know I'm rambling but fucking hell, science

I just want a hoverboard before I'm too old to ride it

[Chorus]

I just wanna let you know you let me down

I said I just wanna let you know you let me down

I said when I was just a kid at a tender age

I was thinking about tomorrow and them better days

I just wanna let you know you let me down

[Verse 4]

They bombardin' us with long articles

About the Hadron Collider, trying to find the God particle

And everybody's arguing about whether or not

To clone people or keep it to farm yard animals, shit

Double 'em up, triple 'em, fuck the discipline

Grab a bunch of rabbits and slap all the lipstick on 'em you want

Yeah, maybe high heels to match

That's what playing God is for, hoverboards

[Chorus]

I just wanna let you know you let me down

I said I just wanna let you know you let me down

I said when I was just a kid at a tender age

I was thinking about tomorrow and them better days

I just wanna let you know you let me down
