La Roux – 21st Century lyrics
[Intro]
Oh-oh-oh

[Verse 1]
[?] man of what it means to love to me
Oh, better settle down and play games with great teeth
Oh, when you light the fire, what it feels to burn it down
You're telling everybody of those years of killing time
Oh, wasn't satisfied at 25 or 23
Oh, when you live to find it, how much faster can it be?
I'm telling everybody, living fast is so fun
Oh babe, I'm paralysed, just let me [?] this kinda life

[Chorus]
Oh-oh, hold on
When the 21st century's gone
We hold on
Move along
When you're finally finding your song
Then hold on
Move along

[Verse 2]
No, it doesn't matter what it is, it cannot be
Oh, when the one I'm finding's just not fierce enough for me
Oh, thanks for playing keep up with me, I don't need a nine-to-five
Oh, when you find the diamonds, all your tears be still in time
Oh, when I find the money, all our dreams become untrue
Only, baby, if you let me, I'll do anything for you
Oh, when you get the money
Oh, when you get the money
Oh, the innocence is blinding
Can you feel a better time?

[Chorus]
Oh-oh, hold on
When the 21st century's gone
We hold on
Move along
When you're finally finding your song
Then hold on
Move along

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
Oh-oh, hold on
When the 21st century's gone
We hold on
Move along
When you're finally finding your song
Then hold on
Move along

[Outro]
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
Gonna let it go
Oh, let me know
That the song that's in my head, it's unintentional
Baby, let it go
It's just a place I know
