One day when I came home at lunchtime
I heard a funny noise
Went out to the backyard to find out
If it was one of those rowdy boys

Stood there with my neighbor called Peter
And a Flux Capacitor
He told me he built a time machine
Like one in a film I've seen

He said: I've been to the year three thousand
Not much has changed but they lived under water
And your great, great, great granddaughter
Is doing fine (doing fine)

He took me to the future in the flux thing
And I saw everything
Boy bands and another one, and another one
And another one

Girls there with round hair like Star Wars
Float above the floor
We drove around in a time machine
Like the one in the film I've seen

He said: I've been to the year three thousand
Not much has changed but they lived under water
And your great, great, great granddaughter
Is doing fine (doing fine)

I took a trip to the year three thousand
This song had gone multi-platinum
Everybody bought our 7th album
It had outsold Kelly Clarkson

I took a trip to the year three thousand
This song had gone multi-platinum
Everybody bought our 7th album
7th album, 7th album

He told me he built a time machine
Like the one in a film I've seen

I've been to the year three thousand
Not much has changed but they lived under water
And your great, great, great granddaughter
Is doing fine, doing fine

(Oh, yeah)
He said: I've been to the year three thousand (yeah, I've been)
Not much has changed but they lived under water (whoa, yeah)
And your great, great, great granddaughter (great granddaughter)
Is doing fine (doing fine, yeah, doing fine)

He said: I've been to the year three thousand
Not much has changed (not much) but they lived under water (whoa, yeah)
And your great, great, great granddaughter
Is doing fine, doing fine

He said: I've been to the year three thousand
Not much has changed but they lived under water
And your great, great, great granddaughter
Is doing fine, doing fine, ha!
