Song for future tenses

Can anyone think of a fairly well-known song that uses future tenses? This is for adults, so nursery rhymes won't do.

I will Survive is an old favourite that one of my colleagues used to use back in Vancouver. Love that disco!
"Future Tenses"

Hi all,
At some risk of provoking a controversy which, if it occurs, might be better placed in the "Applied Linguistics" forum, could I ask whether English
has a future tense?

Larry- I suppose that is why many books that I have used have the term "expressing the future using will or be going to". We were however all aware of what the original poster meant by "future tense" so perhaps it is time the to change the terminology? (Glad I'm not the person in charge of editting grammar books! Sounds like a tough job.)
