Love in the 21st Century

Look at all the people lined up outside,

This must be the place

I see beautiful women dressed in black,

everyone a pretty face

Red lips, tight hips, hey little girl

You make my heart do flips

Baby please, don't tease, can't you see

I love you I'm on my knees

Something is wrong with this picture

She doesn't like the way I dance

Why is everybody just standin' around

lookin' for true romance

I'm looking at you and what do I see

Love in the 21st Century

I know what you're thinking

What's in it for me?

That's love in the 21st Century,

Love in the 21st Century

Tell me do I look like a desperate man

Champagne and flowers in my hand

I don't know her, she don't know me

She's my video date, she's my destiny

Do you like to party? (yeh, yeh, yeh)

Do you want to settle down? (no, no, no)

Do you like my kind of music? (yeh, yeh, yeh)

Do you wanna mess around? (whoa, whoa, whoa)

Something is wrong with this picture

She doesn't even look the same

Whatever a poor boy does these days

Love is still a losing game

I'm looking at you, you're looking at me

It's love in the 21st Century

We're living in pictures, we want what we see

That's love in the 21st Century

Where do you go? What do you do?

How can somebody make his dreams come true?

What does everybody need desperately?

Love in the 21st Century, love in the 21st Century

She wants to party, love on the line

She likes to party, love on the line

It's the same sad story all over this world

Every man looking for the perfect girl

He sees her everyday in a magazine

Sees her everynight on a T.V. screen

Something is wrong with this picture

Has everybody gone insane?

Whatever a poor boy does these days

You can't find love and it's a cryin' shame

I can't touch you and you can't touch me

It's love in the 21st Century

It's all imagination and fantasy

That's love in the 21st Century

You can get it by mail, you can get it by phone

You can get it late at night when you're all alone

What does everybody want desperately?

Love in the 21st Century

We need love in the 21st Century
