21st Century Life by Sam Sparro
21st Century Life lyrics
When I was a little boy
Living 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 imagined
It was totally confounding
21st century life
I got swept away
I got 21,000 things that I got to do today
21st century life
Well what can I say?
The new world got me feeling so dirty
Think I need to get down and play
Well now I turned on the TV just in time to hear what the Pope said, Pope said
And just a few tiny words later
Somebody wants the man dead
What about famine and disease
Well they said it�s too bad
Because I�m never alone
It�s not just a phone
It�s a stereo
21st century life
I got swept away
I got 21,000 things that I got to do today
21st century life
What can I say?
The new world got me feeling so dirty
Think I need to get down and play
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 watched the news on my computer screen
Talking about buying my weed out of a vending machine
You tell me I�m free
But how can it be
When you�re always watching me on the CCTV
21st century life
I got swept away
I got 21,000 things that I got to do today
21st century life
What can I say?
The new world got me feeling so dirty
Think I need to get down and play
21, 21, 21
I�m talking about 21, 21
