"Tomorrow" is a song by Australian rock band Silverchair and was their breakthrough single from their debut album Frogstomp, which was released in 1995. The song reached #1 on both the Modern Rock Tracks and the ARIA Chart. It was also released on their The Best of Volume 1.

Silverchair's lead singer Daniel Johns said this about the song in an interview: "I saw on SBS once this documentary about a poor guy that takes a rich guy to a poor persons' hotel to experience what it's like being a poor person and that. And the rich guy is complaining to get out and that, and he has to wait 'til tomorrow to get out of the hotel and that."

The song was performed on Saturday Night Live.[1] It was also featured in an episode of Beavis and Butt-head. At the start, they started singing Boston's "More Than a Feeling", then concluded that the song was stupid.

The song was performed live during the early leg of the Neon Ballroom tour in 1999, and has not been played since due to Daniel Johns disliking the track as he got older.
