It's 'Be propelled or else be prepared to be pushed'
It may as well be the law
It may as well be written up there upon the wall

I used to run around, getting up in people's faces
I can't believe it now
Who I was and some of the places I've been

The future came and crushed me flat
All my old predicitions- yeah, yeah
All my old religion- yeah, yeah
The future took care of all of that
