Friends say it's fine, friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
I move like a cat, charge like a ram
Sting like a bee, babe I wanna be your man
well it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah
I'm your toy, your 20th century boy
Friends say its fine, friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
Fly like a plane, drive like a car
Ball like a hen, babe I wanna be your man - oh
Well it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah
I'm your toy, your 20th century boy

20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy

Friends say it's fine, friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
I move like a cat, charge like a ram
Sting like a bee, babe I wanna be your man
well it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah
I'm your toy, your 20th century boy

20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
20th century toy, I wanna be your boy
