21st Century Lyrics by La Roux

Supervision

2020

[Intro]
Oh, oh
[Verse 1]
Very sentimental and it means a lot to me
Oh, better settled down than playing games through gritted teeth
Oh, when you light the fire all your fears about it die
You're telling everybody, all those years of killing time
I wasn't satisfied at 25 or 23
Oh, will you let me find it? How much faster can it be?
Oh, I'm telling everybody, but advice is all I find
Oh, babe, I'm paralysed, just let me find some kind of life
[Chorus]
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 or cannot be
Oh, where's the war I'm fighting? It's just not fierce enough for me
Oh, thanks for playing keeper, but I don't need a 9 to 5
Oh when you found the diamonds, all your tears were still inside
Oh, when we find the money, all our dreams become untrue
Oh, but baby if you let me I'll do anything for you
Oh, when you get the money, oh, will you get the mind?
All the innocence is burning, can you feel a better time?
[Chorus]
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
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
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
Gotta let it go
Oh, then you know
But this song that's in my head, it's unintentional
Baby, let it go
It's just a place I know
