Bad Religion - Queen of the 21st Century lyrics
[Bad Religion - Queen of the 21st Century lyrics]
From the time she could crawl
She was all draped in macrame
She was preened and redeemed
In a church that tried to show the way
She was taught to never ask for more
They had no idea of what she had in store
She's the queen of the 21st century
Just a ghost of what her parents
Thought a little girl should be
Analog heart, analog nerves, analog brain
But a fixture of the digital domain
Whoa oh oh oh
From the time she could read
She could see that there was urgency
No debate, just a spate
Of ignorance in a splintering community
She could never meet their expectations
Then she came to symbolize the nation
She's the queen of the 21st century
Just a shell of what her parents
Thought a little girl should be
Steeped in spite, coddled in fear
Drenched in novelty
Oh oh, but masterful of sensual technology
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
She's the queen she's the queen
No rules in her empire she's the queen
Just libido and desire
She's a lean, mean fighting machine
The stuff for modern media lore
And she always knows the score
She's the queen of the 21st century
Just a ghost of what her parents
Thought a little girl should be
Fallen star, black and blue, broken hearts
Wasted youth
Rusted cars, twisted roots, mental scars
The ugly truth
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
She's the queen of the 21st century
(Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
She's the queen of the 21st century
(Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
And she's a modern day romantic
A walking controversy
(Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
She's the queen of the 21st century
(Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
She's the queen of the 21st century
(Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
She's the queen of the 21st century
(Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
She's the queen
She was all draped in macrame
She was preened and redeemed
In a church that tried to show the way
She was taught to never ask for more
They had no idea of what she had in store
She's the queen of the 21st century
Just a ghost of what her parents
Thought a little girl should be
Analog heart, analog nerves, analog brain
But a fixture of the digital domain
Whoa oh oh oh
From the time she could read
She could see that there was urgency
No debate, just a spate
Of ignorance in a splintering community
She could never meet their expectations
Then she came to symbolize the nation
She's the queen of the 21st century
Just a shell of what her parents
Thought a little girl should be
Steeped in spite, coddled in fear
Drenched in novelty
Oh oh, but masterful of sensual technology
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
She's the queen she's the queen
No rules in her empire she's the queen
Just libido and desire
She's a lean, mean fighting machine
The stuff for modern media lore
And she always knows the score
She's the queen of the 21st century

Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
She's the queen of the 21st century
(Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
She's the queen of the 21st century
(Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)

(Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
She's the queen of the 21st century
(Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh)
She's the queen
