Lyrics
:
I used to be a sweet and innocent child See the world in pictures of black and white Now its all fading into one big crazy Twenty-first century attitude It's not my live that's in question Standing in between us every time we speak up It�s the fear of failure The enemy that penetrates your whole being (Here it comes now) It's the twenty-first century Things ain't what they used to be It's the twenty-first century I'm bitter, I'm twisted, I'm cynical me Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want? Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want from me? It's the twenty-first century Twenty-first century Some say I've got a lust for glory But I'm too proud to beg to dirty my knees Say do you want a piece of the action But when the bullets fly you're nowhere to be seen It's the twenty-first century Things ain't what they used to be It's the twenty-first century I'm bitter, I'm twisted, I'm cynical me Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want? Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want from me? It's the twenty-first century I tell it like it is I tell it like it should be The always would be The way it's going to be from now on Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want? Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want? Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want? Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want from me? I used to be a sweet and innocent child See the world in pictures of black and white Now its all fading into one big crazy Twenty-first century attitude It's the twenty-first century Things ain't what they used to be It's the twenty-first century I'm bitter, I'm twisted, I'm cynical me Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want? Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want from me? It's the 21st Century 21st Century Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want? Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want?
