The Future Looks Fun to Me is an original song that was used as part of the Future showtape. It was later re-recorded with the late Cool/early Avenger voices for the Terrific Time Travel Review showtape.

Lyrics (1991)[]
Chuck E.: I read in a book about the way the future would look
And the future looks fun to me (Pasqually: And fun is fine!)
There'll be more time for pleasure and since leisure is a Chuck E. treasure,
And the future looks fun to me (Pasqually: I say!)
I've got no crystal ball, just a really strong hunch
That I'll be having a great time if I stick with this bunch (Munch: Always welcome!)
I greet each tomorrow with some jocularity
Because the future looks fun to me (giggles)
Pasqually: Popularity and such vocabularity!
Maybe travel in space will become quite commonplace
And that looks like fun to me (Yes it does!)
Jasper: Lots of movies comin' round, and since I'm a movie hound,
The future looks fun to me
Munch: When those guys are smart as I'm startin' new, do nothing all day
Helen: Let's sit around and dream about the games for us to play
All: And since havin' a good time is a priority,
The future looks fun to me (Yeah!)
(Munch laughs)
Kids: Hey! We're all kids now, what's the future gonna be like anyhow?
Chuck E.: Oh, the future will be fun, for you don't you think?
Helen: Yes, I do!
Munch: Yes, I do!
Pasqually: Yes, I do!
Jasper: Thank you!
Kids: Even if we grow up, Mr. Cheese, may we show up?
Chuck E.: Now, that sounds like fun to me (Helen: Oh, me too!)
All: The band and I could care if you're 101
We like kids of any age who like having fun (Kids: OKAY!)
The odds will be purveyors of gladness and glee
So the future looks fun to me!
Chuck E.: Hi-cha!
Lyrics (1999)[]
Chuck E.: Oh, I read in a book about the way the future would look
And the future looks fun to me
There'll be more time for pleasure and since leisure is a Chuck E. treasure,
And the future looks fun to me
I've got no crystal ball, just a really strong hunch
That I'll be having a great time if I stick with this bunch
I greet each tomorrow with a jocularity
Because the future looks fun to me (giggles)
Pasqually: Maybe travel in space will become quite commonplace
And the future looks like fun to me (Jasper: Oh, yeah!)
Jasper: Lots of movies comin' round, and since I'm a movie hound,
The future looks fun to me
Munch: When those guys are smart as Einstein, who do nothing all day
Helen: But sit around and dream of better games we can play
All: And since havin' a good time is a priority,
The future looks fun to me
All but Chuck E.: Hey! We're here now, what's the future gonna look like anyhow?
Chuck E.: Oh, the future will be fun, for you, don't you think?
Helen: Yes, I do!
Munch: Yes, I do!
Pasqually: Yes, I do!
Jasper: Thank you!
All but Chuck E.: Even if we grow up, Mr. Cheese, may we show up?
Chuck E.: Now, that sounds like fun to me
The band and I could care if you're 101
We love kids of any age who like having fun
All: Glad to be purveyors of gladness and glee
Yes, the future looks fun to me!
