Verse 1
C# E F# A G#
I can't believe it,
The way you look sometimes,
G# C# E B# F#
Like a trampled flag on a city street,
C# E F# G#
oh yeah
C# E F A G#
And I don't want it,
The things you're offering me,
D F C G
symbolized bar code, quick i.d.,
C# E G#
oh yeah
Chorus
C# A E B
I'm a 21st century digital boy,
I don't know how to live, but I've got a lot of toys,
my daddy is a lazy middle class intellectual,
my mommy's on valium, she's so ineffectual,
G#
ain't life a mystery?
C# E F A G# C# E G#
Verse 2
I can't explain it,
the things they're saying to me,
it's going yayayayayayaya,
oh yeah,
Chorus
I'm a 21st century digital boy,
I don't know how to live, but I've got a lot of toys,
my daddy is a lazy middle class intellectual,
my mommy's on valium, she's so ineffectual,

Bridge

I tried to tell you about no control,
C#
but now I really don't know,

and then you told me how bad you had to suffer,
G#
is that really all you have to offer?
(Solo)
C# A E B (x4)
G#
Chorus X2 (this is not 100% - it's hard!)
Get front iron claw
no censure, scream for more
Innocence's raped with napalm fire
Everything I want, I really need
G#
Ain't life a mystery
