Matthew Good - 21st Century Living Lyrics

Fake lightning flashes over the skyline
A deer in your headlights, so gun it
We're singing songs about 21st century living
If hate's in your heart man, you'll take what you're given

While we were hunting rabbits

Buy in, it'll shut you up, try it, it should shut you up
We've brought someone in to shut you up, it's a life's work

While we were hunting rabbits, I came upon a clear
The sky, its stars like fortune drilled me
Until now I was a soldier, until now I dealt in fear
These years of cloak and dagger have left us disappeared

And I dance and I sing and I'm a monkey in a long line

Buy in, it should shut you up, try it, it should shut you up
They've brought someone in to shut you up and it's getting to be light work

While we were hunting rabbits, I came upon a clear
The sky, its stars like fortune drilled me
Until now I was a soldier, until now I dealt in fear
These years of cloak and dagger have left us disappeared

And I dance and I sing and I'm a monkey in a long line of kings
And we dance and we sing and we're all monkeys in a long line
I'm just a boat on the ocean and I'm just a ship lost at sea
