21st CENTURY GIRL
Lyrics
21st CENTURY GIRL
She don’t care ‘bout the latest gossip
She don’t care what the bad boys do
She don’t care what the stars are wearin
She don’t Facebook about her shoes
She don’t hang if she just don’t want to
She don’t care if she might offend
She don’t need you to need her badly
And she don’t chase after your boyfriend
But she comes walking, all the boys feel it
Beg all they want but she won’t deal it
She’s a 21st century girl, she’s a 21st century girl
Yeah, she got eyes like a guided missile
She locks on and you’re blown away
She got moves like the Special Forces
Mess with her she gonna make you pay
But she got passion and she got mercy
She got love meant to heal the world
She don’t think any child should suffer
Just so Rich Bitch can buy new pearls
She don’t care ‘bout your politickin’
“Do it or get out my way!” her thinking
She’s a 21st century girl, she’s a 21st century girl
Bombay and Cairo, yeah, New York, Berlin
Well ’round the world it’s happenin’
Yeah, young girls they’re risin’ up (better listen up)
Those young girls are gonna move this world
(21st century girls, 21st century girls)
She can touch like she came from heaven
She got love that can shake your bones
She got wisdom to keep your guessing
She got laughter to fill your home
She will rock you and she will hold you
She will help you be all you can
She’s not shopping but if she bought
It’d be a 21st century man
She’s your sister, she’s your daughter
Give it up, recognize her power
She’s a 21st century girl, she’s a 21st century girl
Bombay and Cairo, yeah, New York, Berlin
Well ’round the world it’s happenin’
Yeah, young girls they’re risin’ up, better listen up
Those young girls are gonna move this world
(21st century girls, 21st century girls)
Shanghai, Rio, Cape Town, here we go
London, Moscow, in Tehran it’s happenin’
Young girls risin’ up, yeah, yeah, you better listen up
Those young girls are gonna move this world
