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 Life is an unanswered question Standing in between us every time we speak It�s the fear of failure The enemy that penetrates your whole being It's the twenty-first century The schizophrenics taken over me 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) You say you've got a lust for glory I'm too proud to beg to dirty my knees I know you want a piece of the action But when the bullets fly you're nowhere to be seen It's the twenty-first century A schizophrenic virtuality 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) 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 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? It's the twenty-first century (Twenty-first century) (Come on, come on) (Is this what you wanted? Is this what you really want? Is this what you wanted? Is this what you want?) (Come on)

Mike Peters Notes
:”I was never completely happy with the original lyric of the ’21st’ demo version that appeared on the ‘System’ CD, and so I updated it in the studio during the recording sessions. It has been interesting to release the demo first and allow people into the development of the song. This is something I might try again in the future.”
