21st Century Blues - The Wombats

Share on

Did you get that house, the one with the swimming pool?
The one you never shut up about
I heard you got that job, and the extra pay works well for you
Are you getting high and not coming down?

I need to decipher the differences between
What I'll always want and what I'll never need

I don't need your
I don't need your swinging moods
Your Twenty-first Century blues
I want hugs not your scissor kicks
I don't need your
Your broken plans or your panda eyes
Your help to improve my social life
If my head's in the clouds, in the clouds I'll live
In the clouds I'll live

They say you've found some one with style to match their charm and wit
But are you having sex in the morning sun?
And is your head screwed tight or has success began to loosen it?
Is the tip of the iceberg that much fun?

Oh, help me decipher the differences between
What I'll always want and what I'll never need

And I don't need your swinging moods
Your Twenty-first Century blues
And if nothing comes. Then nothing has to leave
If my head's in the clouds, in the clouds I wanna be

I don't need your love
If my head's in the clouds, then in the clouds I'll live
