Was a beautiful
Baby boy
You wondered what I'd become
Jesus Christ
In a fistfight
With Iron Mike Tyson
Good at school
Almost cool
But so, so, so nervous
Behind each smile
The frightened eye
A reservoir of helplessness
Give me some good twentieth century
Cooking, loving, radio, TV
I drove her car
All the way
Across the sand dunes and beach
In the mirror
Couldn't be clearer
The Mexican police
From a hospital bed
Virtually dead
The soul untethered in the air
You watched the kite
Flicker out of sight
Before falling back to earth
Give me some good twentieth century
Cooking, loving, radio, TV
Give me some good twentieth century
Cooking, loving, radio, TV
1980's
Maternity ward
Dream of days to come
A new decade
A new age
A new millennium
For all the love
You gave to me
I could have been anything
Arthur Guinness
Georgie Best
But I amounted to nothing
Give me some good twentieth century
Cooking, loving, radio, TV
Give me some good twentieth century
Cooking, loving, radio, TV
I shared your breath
I shared your blood
I shared your body first
The new age came
Love stayed the same
For the old-timers
