21st Century Boy - Willy Mason

he’s just wandering, got no place to go, no place to go

he’s just wandering, don’t nobody know nobody knows him

but he knows the world,

and his paintings show all of its charms

but he knows the world,

and his paintings show all of its charms

and when he plays guitar he don’t need to be witty

he takes all his sadness makes it sound so pretty

people close their eyes when they listen

and suffer the modern world with him

he went to the doctor

who gave him perscriptions, gave him perscriptions

he lost all his friends,

but kept up his rhythm, kept his rhythm

he picked up the guitar

and tells it everything his tongue can’t say

picked up the guitar, tells it everything his tongue can’t say

and when he plays guitar he don’t need to be witty

he takes all his sadness makes it sound so pretty

people close their eyes when they listen

and suffer the modern world with him

he sees the people walking by

with their skateboards and their eyes

and their clothes that say, 'we're not alone'

he sees the history in their face

history that they can’t erase

its to these lines that he relates

and thats how he never frets

about the things he’ll never get

all he needs to know is we’re not alone

and thats how he never frets

about the things he’ll never get

all he needs to know is

we’re not alone here…
