20th Century Boy Lyrics by T. Rex

1973 (Whatever Happened To The Teenage Dream?)

1973

[Intro]
(Oow!)
[Verse 1]
Friends say it's fine, friends say its's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
I move like a cat, charge like a ram, sting like a bee
Baby, I wanna be your man, hey
[Chorus]
Well, it's plain to see
You were meant for me
Yeah, I'm your boy
Your twentieth century toy
[Verse 2]
Friends say it's fine, friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
Fly like a plane, drive like a car, hold like a hand
Babe, I wanna be your man, oow
[Chorus]
Well, it's plain to see
You were meant for me
Yeah, I'm your toy
Your twentieth century boy
[Bridge]
Twentieth century toy
I wanna be your boy
Twentieth century toy
I wanna be your boy
Twentieth century toy
I wanna be your boy
Twentieth century toy
I wanna be your boy
[Verse 1]
Friends say it's fine, friends say it's good
Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood
Move like a cat, charge like a ram, sting like a bee
Babe, I wanna be your man
[Chorus]
Well, it's plain to see
You were meant for me
Yeah, I'm your toy
Your twentieth century boy
[Outro]
Twentieth century toy
I want to be your boy
Twentieth century toy
I want to be your boy
Twentieth century toy
I want to be your toy
Twentieth century boy
I want to be your toy
