(...if you could only see what i've seen with your eyes) |
|
A wise man once said |
|
A flower is only |
|
A sexual organ |
|
Beauty is cruelty |
|
And evolution |
|
A wise man once said |
|
That everything could be explained with mathematics |
|
He had denied |
|
His feminine side |
|
Now where is the wisdom in that? |
|
I came just as fast as i could |
|
Through the dirty air |
|
Of your neighbourhood |
|
Your name on a grain of rice |
|
Hangin' around my neck |
|
And a head like lead |
|
This is the 21st century |
|
I heard everything they said |
|
The universe demystified |
|
Chemicals for god |
|
This is the 21st century |
|
I heard everything they said |
|
A wise man once wrote |
|
That love is only |
|
An ancient instinct |
|
For reproduction |
|
Natural selection |
|
A wise man once said |
|
That everything could be explained |
|
And it's all in the brain |
|
We lay on a velvet rug |
|
By the open fire |
|
She blew air on my eyelids |
|
I cried "what's it all about?" |
|
As she kissed my hair |
|
She said "there, there.." |
|
"this is the 21st century |
|
I heard everything you said |
|
The universe demystified |
|
Astronomy instead |
|
This is the 21st century |
|
Can't you get it through your head |
|
This aint the way it was meant to be |
|
Magic isn't dead |
|
Come to bed |
|
Come to bed |
|
And rest your heavy head my love.." |
|
And slowly, from above, |
|
She showed the answer's something that can't be written down |
|
This is the 21st century |
|
Flash to crash and burn |
|
Nobody's gonna give you anything |
|
For nothing in return |
|
There's a man up in a mirrored building |
|
And he just bought the world |
|
Would you want |
|
To have kids |
|
Growing up |
|
Into what's left of this? |
|
She shook her head, |
|
She said "can't you see? |
|
The world is you |
|
The world is me." |
