When I was a little boy
Livin in the last century
I thought about living in the future
Then it occurred to me
I turned around
The future was now
The future was all around me
Nothing like I had imagined
It was totally confounding
Heey-ohh-woo

21st century life
I got swept away
I got 21 thousand things
That I gotta do today
21st century life
What can I say?
The new world's got me feelin so dirty
Think I need to get down and pray

Well now I
Turned on the TV just in time enough
To hear what the Pope said
The Pope said
And just a few tiny little words later
Somebody wants the man dead
Well what about famine and disease?
They said it's too bad (oops)
Because I'm never alone
It's not just the phone
It's the stereo (ooooo)

21st century life
I got swept away
I got 21 thousand things
That I gotta do today
21st century life
What can I say?
The new world's got me feelin so dirty
Think I need to get down and pray

Now I'm not a little boy
I'm in the 21st century
Well you might think we've come a really long way
But there's still no equality
I watch the news on my computer screen
Talkin' about
Buying my weed out of a vending machine
You tell me I'm free
Well how can that be
When you're always watchin' me on the CCTV?

21st century life
I got swept away
I got 21 thousand things
That I gotta do today
21st century life
What can I say?
The new world's got me feelin so dirty
Think I need to get down and pray

Whoawhoa 21, 21, 21...
Im' talkin' about 21, 21, whoawhoa-hoooo
woohoo, woohoo, woohoo
