THE LYRICS:
Now let me tell you about these modern times
The recklessness of this life of mine
I've always been averse to moral codes
I'm lonely tonight - self control and I are fighting
Now all I see are zombies all around
Homogenization trying to chase me down
I want a rhyme and a reason
Sweet boy can't you see
Your hat matches my jeans and
A little baby just bled to death
Old lady just shot herself
We're dancing dancing dancing
Chorus:
In our 21st century lives oh...
This is 21st century life oh...
This is 21st century love oh...
Can you feel it
We're so boring
Can you feel it
We're so boring
And so we talk about your P.H.D.
The social class and your big degree
Another man-made creation
Worthless when we die
Can tell you don't think I'm a smart guy
Still I'm compelled to call you my friend
It felt so good to finally feel again
Can't define my top friends
This computerized touch
It doesn't do much
Family with five kids and no job
A junkie can't put the needle down
We're dancing dancing dancing
Repeat Chorus
Like it's my last breath
(Our country is falling)
Like I'm gonna starve to death
(A Barbie doll's rising)
Like I'm hungry again
(And I could care less)
Repeat Chorus
