20th Century Kids

Every Friday I drive the same way Same high school kids they never change Past the old church Where I grew up By the river I knew what love was All the CD's Mariah Carey Empty bottles that were left on the concrete Guess I need a hot tub time machine to go back To Kissing all our posters of our favourite bands Out in the streets until we got called in When we were young dumb and free Mom did our dirty laundry Just like in the movies Hey I think that the world has changed, a lot, not just a little bit Hey maybe since we all became someone on the internet We were the 20th century kids We didn't do it for the internet It was easy living back then No money drama No money to spend Calling your friends On a flip phone (Hey what are you up to?) What happened to the toys in the cereal When did we get, so consumed In the likes on our photos, not cool So lost in the algorithm take me back When we thought true love would last And the world felt big before society Made me feel pain and know anxiety When we were young dumb and free Mom did our dirty laundry Just like in the movies Hey I think that the world has changed, a lot, not just a little bit Hey maybe since we all became someone on the internet We were the 20th century kids We didn't do it for the internet Hey i think that the world has changed, a lot, not just a little bit Hey maybe since we all became someone on the internet We were the 20th century kids Lighting up our candy cigarettes We didn't do it for the internet No not for the internet We were the 20th century kids We didn't do it for the internet No not for the internet
