Inventing Tomorrow

AC Power Radio Florescent lighting Remote Control The world may never come to know The man who invented tomorrow Before I put an idea down to paper The whole plan is worked out mentally One tiny observation Cascades into construction The power wielded is too great to operate I'm the man the world tried to erase Think of me when you're channel surfing I'm the man the world tried to erase Think of me one step behind Honing in now I've set my sights Man-made lightning Who needs power lines Embrace yourself Inspecting needs A silent legacy remains breathing yet still unseen And I'm not even asking, One word edge wise in passing With skin so tight I've got to even up the slate One tiny observation cascades into construction The power wielded is too great to operate
