Queen Of The 21st Century — текст песни (Bad Religion)

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

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 shred of what her parents thought a little girl should be
Steeped in spite, coddled in fear, drenched in novelty
but masterful at sensual technology

She`s the queen, no rules in her empire
She`s the queen, just libido and desire
She`s the lean, mean, fighting machine, the stuff of modernmedia 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

She`s the queen of the 21st century
and she`s a modernday polemic
a walking controversy

She`s the queen!
