21st Century Living Lyrics - Matthew Good Band

You know, today I was asked only one question 

And itOne question all day 

Do you know what that was? 

"Do you want this supersized?" 

You know, come to think of it, I'd like the whole fucking world supersized 

"Supersized guns!" 

Supersized planes 

"Supersized satellites" 

Think about how many more channels you could get with supersized satellites 

"Supersize sales" 

How do you supersize a sale? 

How about we supersize 3rd World debt relief? 

"Supersize love" 

"Supersize honesty" 

Supersize government 

Come to think of it... actually, nah, let's not supersize the government 

I'd like to supersize death 

Can I have a supersize of death? 

I'd like a supersize of death with a Coke 

You know what we need? 

Some back-up singers, hook up like a little jingle 

("It's all right, sooner or later" repeated in background) 

Kinda like that 

We'll supersize the song! 

Really, that's the goal, isn't it? 

We can supersize the record, we'll sell more records! 

It's a supersized record! 

That is, after all, our ambition 

Fake lighting flashes 

Over the skyline 

A deer in your headlights 

So gun it, gun it, gun it, gun it, gun it 

We're singing songs about 

21st century living 

If hate's in your heart, man 

You'll take what you're given 

Ambition, ambition's a tricky thing 

It's like riding a unicycle over a dental floss tightrope over a wilderness or razor blades 

Ambition can backfire 

Ambition means more 

Ambition means faster 

Ambition means better 

I wonder if you can supcan you supersize ambition? 

Does that make you ambitious if you supersize ambition? 

Around here, our ambition hurts more than it helps 

See, around here our ambition throws an non-perishable item in a donation bin at Christmas 

And it pats itself on the fucking back because it thinks it's done something decent 

("It's all right, sooner or later" repeated in background) 

Yeah, we're supersizing ambition 

Make no mistake about it 

Ambition will televise the revolution 

And it'll sell more fucking commercial spots than the Super Bowl, the Olympics, the World Series, and the Tragedy Du Jour combined 

We're supersizing 

We're supersizing the record 

'Cause we're ambitious 

Fake lighting flashes 

Over the skyline 

A deer in your headlights 

So gun it, gun it, gun it, gun it, gun it 

We're singing songs about 

21st century living 

If hate's in your heart, man 

You'll take what you're given 

If hate's in your heart, man 

You'll take what your given
