Biography:
Josh Joplin Group was a Georgia-based pop music band led by singer-songwriter Josh Joplin. Joplin, a self-proclaimed "dork" who nonetheless dropped out of school in tenth grade to become a folk singer like his hero Phil Ochs, brought the group its trademark combination of introspective lyrics, folk-rock melodies, and lead vocals that, to many, sound identical to those of R.E.M. singer Michael Stipe (to the point that one Joplin song, "Happy at Last," begins, "I sound like Michael Stipe and I dream like Carl Jung").

Thomas, a new century's upon us
You were enlightened but you weren't very honest
I know, was a long time ago
And things change and people change
And both have changed us
(Same as Chorus 1)
Here's to the future that was
Everything you thought it'd be but
Was it anything you thought of?
Here's to the future that was
(Same as Verse 1)
Samuel, your son is quite a handful
His grades are bad, he can't do math
And he tends to ramble
Our tests show that he's a bit slow
If he receives the help he needs
He'll ride the same bus
(Same as Chorus 1)
Here's to the future that was
Everything you thought it'd be but
Was it anything you thought of?
Here's to the future that was fine
That's about it, a really nice simple song by an all-too-unknown artist. Hope you enjoy!
