21st Century Man

Every day is the same
Dumb reflex
Is there anyone sane
In this complex?
Like some kind of a drug
I’m stupefied
Televisions and wires
All hooked up
And what have we become?
This system
Download data direct
Into the unit
Lithium, iron and steel
And copper
Overloading the buds
With microchips and viruses
I get the chills all over
Head spinning round again
Can’t sleep with eyes wide open
And my heart is trembling
I’m a 21st Century Man
In the 21st Century, man
In the 21st Century
You like me I like you
We function
A mechanical zoo
Or freak circus
You can write a review
Or rate me
I can see you from space
But you can’t face me
I get the chills all over
Head spinning round again
Can’t sleep with eyes wide open
And my heart is trembling
I’m a 21st Century Man
In the 21st Century, man
In the 21st Century
