20Th Century Man

1.20th Century Man (Kinks) sözleri

Kinks tarafından albümünde söylenen 20th Century Man adlı şarkının sözleri.

This is the age of machinery,
A mechanical nightmare,
The wonderful world of technology,
Napalm hydrogen bombs biological warfare,

This is the twentieth century,
But too much aggravation
It’s the age of insanity,
What has become of the green pleasant fields of jerusalem.

Ain’t got no ambition, I’m just disillusioned
I’m a twentieth century man but I don’t wanna be here.
My mama said she can’t understand me
She can’t see my motivation
Just give me some security,
I’m a paranoid schizoid product of the twentieth century.

You keep all your smart modern writers
Give me william shakespeare
You keep all your smart modern painters
I’ll take rembrandt, titian, da vinci and gainsborough,

Girl we gotta get out of here
We gotta find a solution
I’m a twentieth century man but I don’t want to die here.

I was born in a welfare state
Ruled by bureaucracy
Controlled by civil servants
And people dressed in grey
Got no privacy got no liberty
Cos the twentieth century people
Took it all away from me.

Don’t wanna get myself shot down
By some trigger happy policeman,
Gotta keep a hold on my sanity
I’m a twentieth century man but I don’t wanna die here.

My mama says she can’t understand me
She can’t see my motivation
Ain’t got no security,
I’m a twentieth century man but I don’t wanna be here.

This is the twentieth century
But too much aggravation
This is the edge of insanity
I’m a twentieth century man but I don’t wanna be here.

Sammy Hagar tarafından albümünde söylenen 20th Century Man adlı şarkının sözleri.

OW!
I don't know what I want, I can't get no peace
All I really know is, I don't need no breeze
Hangin' religon around my back, be a science-fiction feeling of fact
I don't know what I want, I can't get no peace
I got two fine cars, a house and a job
And by the time I'm 35, I'll be a fat slob
I don't care about 1985, cause if I ain't dead, you know I'll be half alive

I don't care about 1985,
C'mon, get it while you can, there ain't much left to take
Go on, get it while you can, there ain't much left to take
Get it while you can, just like a 20th century man
You'll be a 20th, century man
A 20th, century man
