作曲 : Rogg, Sparro
When I was a little boy
Living in the last century

I thought about living in the future
Then it occurred to me
I turned around the future was now
The future was all around me
Nothing like I imagined
It was totally confounding
21st century life
I got swept away

I got 21,000 things
that I got to do today
21st century life
Well what can I say?
The new world got me feeling so dirty
Think I need to get down and play
Well now I turned on the TV just in time enough to hear

what the Pope said,the Pope said
And just a few tiny words later

Somebody wants the man dead
What about famine and disease
badWell they said it’s too

Because I’m never alone
It’not s just a phone
It’s a stereo
21st century life
I got swept away

I got 21,000 things

that I got to do today

21st century life

Well what can I say?

The new world got me feeling so dirty
Think I need to get down and play

Now I'm not a little boy
I'm in the 21st century
Well you might think we've come a really long way,
but there's still no equality

I watched the news on my computer screen
Talking about buying my **** out of a vending machine
You tell me I'm free
But how can it be
When you're always watching me on the CCTV
21st century life
I got swept away
I got 21,000 things
that I got to do today
21st century life
Well what can I say?

The new world got me feeling so dirty
Think I need to get down and play
21, 21, 21
I’m talking about 21, 21
