21st Century Boy Lyrics

From dust of distant stars
Threats of nuclear war
Could you be my 21st century little baby boy?
So take hold our hands
The world will need you baby boy to grow into a good man
When I stare mundanely
The moribund stare back at me
And I think to myself why would anyone choose to exist where I am?
We made love in the darkness
To a fleeting housing market
Could you be my 21st century little baby boy?
So take hold our hands
The world will need you baby boy to grow into a good man
And to put it all into context
How you are so naive yet so complex
And I just want you to be cognizant
Of all your dreams you see in the daylight
Cause many things escape my dreams in the night time
Don't have the answers but I'm tryin' to make right
And baby boy can I offer some insight?
Not necessarily a long but a full life
It's wonderful when looking at it right
