Future To The Back

Would we like to return to the past like Marty McFly?
when you're there, then to the future you must say goodbye;
I passed indiscretions, errors that had been rectified,
cast-offs, you know, that have all since been discarded.

There were wars, people prosecuted by international court,
bastards who didn't behave decently or act as they ought;
tyrants shot in bunkers, hounded until divine intervention,
they knew of their miserable end but forgot to even mention.

I passed Milosevic, Hussain and Gadaffi crawling in earth,
still trying to persuade people of what they were worth,
I thought of Putin where I came from, re-educating children,
to think like he did, so that nothing would be the same again.

McFly had to make sure that his parents fell in love, learn
that without their cooperation - he could just never return.
