Lời bài hát: Men Without Hats. In The 21st Century.

21st century, 21st century, 21st century

When the river runs dry, what will we say?
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, hey, hey
In the 21st century

Oh, when the river runs dry, what will we do?
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, ooh, hoo
In the 21st century

Oh, when the river runs dry, what will we wear?
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, where?
To the 21st century

Now some people sing, some people say
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, hey, hey
Get up off your knees and pray

Pray that the earth don't tire
Of the way that we're puttin' her down
Hope that the universe don't say
"I'm still expanding but your time is up"

Some people sing, some people sigh
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, why?
Why can't we live in peace?

'Cos some people sing, some people say
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, hey, hey
In the 21st century

Hope that the earth don't tire
Of the way that we're puttin' her down
Hope the universe don't say
Stop spinning around

Hope the world don't say
That we've got no place to go
Hope the universe don't say
"I'll be expanding for a while, you know

In the 21st century, in the 21st century
In the 21st century, in the 21st century
21st century, 21st century, 21st century
21st century, 21st century, 21st century
In the 21st century, 21st century

When the river runs dry, what will we say?
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, hey, hey
21st century

The 21st century, the 21st century, the 21st century

Oh, when the river runs dry, what will we do?
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, ooh, hoo

21st century, 21st century
