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

Cause 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 valuim
She's so ineffectual
Ain't life a mystery?

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

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 valuim
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?
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 valuim
She's so ineffectual
