Lyrics 21st Century - La Roux

21st Century

It’s very sentimental and it means a lot to me
Oh better settled down than playing games through gritted teeth
Oh when you light the fire all your fears about it die
You’re telling everybody, all those years of killing time
I wasn’t satisfied at twenty-five or twenty-three
Oh will you let me find it, how much faster can it be
Oh I’m telling everybody but advice is all I find
Oh babe I’m paralysed, just let me find some kind of life
Oh hold on
When the twenty-first century’s gone
We hold on
Move along
When you’re finally finding your song
Then hold on
Move along
No it doesn’t matter what it is or cannot be
Oh where’s the war I’m fighting, it’s just not fierce enough for me
Oh thanks for playing keeper but I don’t need a nine-to-five
Oh when you found the diamonds, all your tears were still inside
Oh when we find the money, all our dreams become untrue
Oh but baby if you let me I’ll do anything for you
Oh when you get the money
Oh will you get the mind
All the innocence is burning
Can you feel a better time
Oh hold on
When the twenty-first century’s gone
We hold on
Move along
When you’re finally finding your song
Then hold on
Move along
Oh hold on
When the twenty-first century’s gone
We hold on
Move along
When you’re finally finding your song
Then hold on
Move along
Oh let it go
Cause the song that’s in my head it’s unintentional
Baby let it go
It’s just a place I know
But the song that’s in my head it’s unintentional
Gotta let it go
Oh then you know
But this song that’s in my head it’s unintentional
Baby let it go
It’s just a place I know
