We used to sit around at night watching old time movie shows
Philosophize and analyze but we didn't know
No, no

You didn't know
(We didn't know)
We didn't know
(We didn't know)
What did you think?
(What did you think?)
We didn't think at all

But we had the world in the palm of our hand
Then we turned around and dropped it
They tore it apart, so we up and ran
'Cause we knew we couldn't stop it, oh no
Where will we all be (Where will we be)
In the twenty-first century?
And now I sit at home alone watching new wave videos
Philosophize then realize that I'll never know
No, no

You'll never know
(You'll never know)
I'll never know
(I'll never know)
What do you think?
(What do you think?)
I still don't think at all

But we had the world in the palm of our hand
Then we turned around and dropped it
They tore it apart, so we up and ran
'Cause we knew we couldn't stop it, oh no
Where will we all be (Where will we be)
In the twenty-first century?
In the twenty-first century
In the twenty-first century
