Twentieth Century

Oh, the twentieth century wasn't all that bad It was a time like no one else has ever had We learned to drive, we learned to fly We sent a man into the sky When he walked on the moon, we were so glad Yeah, the twentieth century wasn't all that bad Yeah, the twentieth century was quite a ride We had to learn to see the other side We had demonstrations and liberations Great depressions and good vibrations And doors that once were closed were opened wide Oh, the twentieth century was quite a ride We had movin' pictures and radio And Broadway, country, rock and roll In 1900, who'd a bet we'd all be surfing on the internet Yeah, the twentieth century was a heck of a show We all had our fifteen minutes, don't you know Assembly lines, celebrities The spotlight shined on you and me And everybody got a standin' O Yeah, the twentieth century was a heck of a show From blocks of ice to air-condition Telegraph to television In 1900, who'd a known we all wind up with pocket phones The twentieth century wasn't all that long Just a hundred years has come and gone We can't go back even if we try So I'll just smile and wave goodbye To see it leavin' makes me kinda sad It was a time like no one else has ever had Oh, the twentieth century wasn't all that bad The twentieth century Bye-bye The twentieth century Goodbye...
