Tomorrow Is a Harsh Mistress - The Mr. T Experience

This is no time or place to wake up

But there are things to do and space to take up

I’m in love with something I dreamed about

I’m in love, but it’s not really there

I’m in love with something I said in a prayer

Tomorrow is a harsh mistress

That I don’t want to wake up to

Which I force myself to do

I guess I’m a harsh mistress, too

I’m what you might call

The once and future nothing at all

I believe in something the cat dragged in

I believe but I think it’s a crime

I believe in what tasted all right at the time

Tomorrow is a harsh mistress

But that won’t matter anyhow

'cause I stayed in bed all day

Who’s the harsh mistress now?

Hey yeah, that’s right

'cause yesterday took all night

That’s right, you bet

Yesterday’s not over yet

With each passing day, a world destroyed

All the things I’ve worked so hard to avoid

The future’s unwritten, so they say

And I’m just trying to keep it that way

OK?

OK?

Tomorrow is a harsh mistress

That I don’t want to wake up to

Which I force myself to do

I guess I’m a harsh mistress, too

I’m in love with something I dreamed about

I believe but it’s not really there

I’m in love with something I dreamed about

I’m in love but it’s not really there
