21st Century (Digital Boy)
I can't believe it, the way you look sometimesLike a trampled flag on a city street, oh yeahAnd I don't want it, the things you're offering meSymbolized bar code, quick ID, oh yeah
[Chorus:]'Cause I'm a 21st century digital boyI don't know how to live, but I've got a lot of toysMy daddy's a lazy middle class intellectualMy mommy's on Valium, so ineffectualAin't life a mystery?
I can't explain it, the things you're saying to meIt's going yayayayayayaya, oh yeah
[Chorus:]'Cause I'm a 21st century digital boyI don't know how to live, but I've got a lot of toysMy daddy's a lazy middle class intellectualMy mommy's on Valium, so ineffectualAin't life a mystery?
Tried to tell you about no controlBut now I really don't knowAnd then you told me how bad you had to sufferIs that really all you have to offer?
[Chorus:]See, I'm a 21st century digital boyI don't know how to read, but I've got a lot of toysMy daddy's a lazy middle class intellectualMy mommy's on Valium, so ineffectualAin't life a mystery?
[Outro:]Cat's foot, iron clawNeurosurgeon, scream for moreInnocence raped with napalm fireEverything I want, I really need.
