Man of the 20th Century |
Riding along in a seven forty seven |
Thinking the heavens are looking just fine |
Whiskey and Coke and I’m lighting a smoke |
And I’m hoping the captain is making good time |
Breakfast in Rome |
Dinner in London, watching a movie and thund’ring along |
Paris of Hong Kong |
It doesn’t take long |
This way or that way, it’s all much the same |
When you’re living at this pace |
The world is a small place |
Getting around is just the name of the game |
So man in the moon I think it’s time to assume that your heavenly reign is over |
Bird on the wing it’s no longer a thing to fly in the sky like you do |
Fish in the sea you’ve got nothing on me |
I can go anywhere I want to |
I’m not the kind to stand in a line and just be the way I was meant to be |
No please understand I gotta be what I can |
I’m a man of the twentieth Century |
Riding along on a wave of invention |
Greater intention and doing just fine |
Thumbing my nose at the forces of nature |
Courses that take you to turbulent times |
Fighting the traffic |
Radio blaring |
Stopping and swearing and passing the blame |
Ah right way or wrong way I’ve come a long way |
This day to that day |
It’s never the same |
When you’re living at this pace |
The world is a small place |
Going ahead is just the name of the game |
So man in the moon I think it’s time to assume that your heavenly reign is over |
Bird on the wing it’s no longer a thing to fly in the sky like you do |
Fish in the sea you’ve got nothing on me |
I can go anywhere I want to |
I get no time to stand in a line and just be the way I was meant to be |
No please understand I gotta go where I can |
I’m a man of the twentieth Century |
Man on the moon I think it’s time to assume it’s no longer the way it was meant |
to be |
Your heavenly reign doesn’t mean the same to a man of the twentieth century |
Man on the moon I think it’s time to assume it’s no longer the way it used to be |
Bird on thw wing you know you don’t mean a thing, to a man of the twentieth |
century |
Man on the moon I think it’s time to assume it’s no longer the way it was meant |
to be |
Fish in the sea, you’ve got nothing on me, I’m a man of the 20th Century |
