Hooray For The 21st Century
Every sweet little lie ever whispered to you now rings true No need to wake the sleeping dogs when they'll just turn on you I'll make my way instead to the foot of your ivory tower But no love do I find there amongst the leaves and the dying flowers... What be came of the love we knew? Beat the swing black and blue You and I and me and you What became of the love we knew? What became of the love we knew? The Thames and The Mersey, The Tyne and The Wye and The Clyde They spew slums like gravy on the banks of the poisonous tide They washed up a pale thin girl alone in her ivory tower Scratching her skin with the thorns that grow on the steams of the wild flowers What became of the love we knew? Beat the swing black and blue You and I and me and you What became of the love we knew? What became of the work class? Nikey, Reebok. Adidas, Scratchcards, Tipples, Ecstacy Hooray for the twenty first century Hooray for the twenty first century Hooray for the twenty first century Hooray for the twenty first century SongtexteHooray for the twenty first century Living in a looking glass As the beauty of life goes by Your going to be old Your going to be so old Your skins so cold Hooray for the twenty first century Hooray for the twenty first century Hooray for the twenty first century Hooray for the twenty first century Hooray for the twenty first century(alright there lads?) Hooray for the twenty first century(fookin bastard) Hooray for the twenty first century(fookin bastard man) Hooray for the twenty first century(fookin.....)
