Life's short, don't make a mess of it

To the ends of the earth, you'll look for a sense in it

No chances, no plans

I'll smash the windows of my box

I'll be a madman

It's no time to be 21

To be anyone

Hold back, see what you miss of it

Out of the shadows, into the thick of it

No maybes, no guessing

I'm getting wound up

The plot sickens

It's no time to be 21

To be anyone

Strip down to the bare facts of it

Into the cold heart, no hope and all that shit

No chances, no plans

I think I'll be somebody else

Or else a madman

It's no time to be 21

To be anyone

We'll be your untouchables

We'll be your outcasts

We don't care what you projects on us

It's no time to be 21
