20th Century Man [Live]
This is for all the imaginary heroes
From Muswell Hillbillies
20th Century Man
This is the age of machinery
A mechanical nightmare
The wonderful world of technology
Napalm hydrogen bombs biological warfare
This is the twentieth century
But too much aggravation
It's the age of insanity
What has become of the green pleasant fields of Jerusalem
Ain't got no ambition
I'm just disillusioned
I'm a twentieth century man but I don't want (don't want, don't want, don't want)
I don't want to be here
You keep all your smart modern writers
Give me William Shakespeare
You keep all your smart modern painters
I'll take Rembrandt, Titian, Da Vinci and Gainsborough
My mama said she can't understand me
Can't see my motivation
Just give me some security
I'm a paranoid schizoid product of the twentieth century
Girl we gotta get out of here
We gotta find a solution
I'm a twentieth century man but I don't want (don't want, don't want, don't want)
I don't want to die here
Girl, we gotta get out of here
We gotta find a solution
I'm a twentieth century man but I don't want (don't want, don't want, don't want)
I don't want to be here
I don't want twentieth century, man
I don't want twentieth century, man
I don't want twentieth century, man
I don't want twentieth century, man
I don't want twentieth century, man
I don't want twentieth century, man
I don't want twentieth century, man
I don't want twentieth century, man
I don't want twentieth century, man
I don't want twentieth century, man
I don't want twentieth century, man
This is the twentieth century
But too much aggravation
This is the edge of insanity
I'm a twentieth century man but I don't want to be here
I don't want twentieth century, man
I don't want twentieth century, man
