Jamie Cullum 21st Century Kid Lyrics

21st Century Kid Lyrics

There's maybe a way i can tell you

'Cos with everyday things continue

To get more compromised, 

So who will fantasise

A new generation politicised



When things are done in our own name

Are we as much to blame?

Now it's become clear to me, 

But only lately

And the ground is removed underneath



Shout it from the brink, 

You're louder than you think



Chorus:

21st century kid, you're surrounded by illusion and confusion,

So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now,

Could it be the greatest weapon?

Could it be the greatest weapon?

Your weapon



Nothing is certain except a memory

And that's soon washed away by a low sea

Now sit yourself down my one 

And see what you become, 

Ignoring a smouldering gun



The white dove's flown

D'ya think we're on our own?



Chorus:

21st century kid, you're surrounded by illusion and confusion.

So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now,

Could it be the greatest weapon?

21st century kid, you're surrounded by illusion and confusion.

So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now,

Could it be the greatest weapon?

Could it be the greatest weapon?

Your weapon
