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 neighborhood |
|
Your name on a grain of rice |
|
Hanging 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 |
|
A wise man once wrote that love is only |
|
A primal instinct for reproduction, natural selection |
|
A wise man once said that everything |
|
Could be explained and it's all in the brain |
|
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 ain't the way it was meant to be, magic isn't dead |
|
Come to bed, come to bed |
|
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 |
|
But 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 your own 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? |
