Bad Religion › Lyrics › 21st Century (Digital Boy)

Well I can't believe it, the way you look sometimes
Like a trampled flag on a city street, oh yeah
And I don't want it, the things you're offering me
Symbolized bar code, quick ID, oh yeah

'Cause I'm a 21st century digital boy
I don't know how to live but I got a lot of toys
My daddy's a lazy middle class intellectual
My mommy's on Valium, so ineffectual
Ain't life a mystery, yeah?

I can't explain it
The things that you're saying to me
It's going yayayayayayaya
Oh yeah

'Cause I'm a 21st century digital boy
I don't know how to read but I got a lot of toys
My daddy's a lazy middle class intellectual
My mommy's on Valium, so ineffectual
Ain't life a mystery, yeah?

Tried to tell you about no control
But now I really don't know
And then you told me how bad you had to suffer
Is that really all you had to offer?

See I'm a 21 century digital boy
I don't know how to live but I got a lot of toys
My daddy's a lazy middle class intellectual
My mommy's on Valium, so ineffectual

Cat's foot, iron claw
Neuro-surgeons scream for more
Innocents raped with napalm fire
Everything I want I really need

21st century schizoid boy
21st century video boy
21st century digital boy
21st century sofa boy
