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 i.d.,
Oh yeah
I'm a 21st century digital boy,
I don't know how to live, but I've got a lot of toys,
My daddy is a lazy middle class intellectual,
My mommy's on valium, she's so ineffectual, ain't life a mystery?
I can't explain it,
The things they're saying to me,
It's going yayayayayayaya,
I'm a 21st century digital boy,
I don't know how to read, but I've got a lot of toys,
My daddy is a lazy middle class intellectual,
My mommy's on valium, she's so ineffectual, ain't life a mystery?
I 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 have to offer?
