A penny in your pocket
|
Suitcase in your hand
|
They won't get you very far
|
Now you're a 21st century man.
|
|
Fly across the city
|
Rise above the land
|
You can do 'most anything
|
Now you're a 21st century man.
|
|
Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow (tomorrow)
|
You still wander the fields of your sorrow
|
What will it bring?
|
|
One day you're a hero
|
Next day you're a clown
|
There's nothing that is in between
|
Now you're a 21st century man.
|
|
You should be so happy
|
You should be so glad
|
So why are you so lonely
|
You 21st century man?
|
|
You stepped out of a dream
|
Believing everything was gone
|
Return with what you've learned
|
They'll kiss the ground you walk upon.
|
|
Things ain't how you thought they were
|
Nothing have you planned
|
So pick up your penny and your suitcase
|
You're not a 21st century man.
|
|
Though you ride on the wheels of tomorrow
|
You still wander the fields of your sorrow (sorrow)
|
Tomorrow, 21st century man
|
21st century man
|
21st century man...
