[Intro]
Hello? Hello? Hello?
We're all made from the spawn of the devil
[Verse 1]
In a place where they fail to inspire
I'm drinking the bleach so that I feel the fire
Inside is a riot but I'm in too deep
A mile in, a mile in
In a place where they think I'm a stranger
I'm shaving my face with a coke covered razor
I press hard so it goes in deep
A mile in, a mile in
[Chorus]
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
(Bang, bang, bang)
It's all bollocks
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
(Bang, bang, bang)
It's all bollocks
[Verse 2]
When I was younger I had a proper plan
Keep myself naive, take advice from the man
But I turned 17 and I saw in my head
He was blowing up the world with a ball point pen
Then, I met a person, I think I fell in love
A certain kind of love you can't find in drugs
But I fucked it up, needed alone time
It's like I killed myself, "I love you long time"
[Chorus]
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
(Bang, bang, bang)
It's all bollocks
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
(Bang, bang, bang)
It's all bollocks
[Bridge]
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century
[Chorus]
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
(Bang, bang, bang)
It's all bollocks
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
I'm a 21st century liability
(Bang, bang, bang)
It's all bollocks
[Outro]
(I'm a 21st century liability)
(I'm a 21st century liability)
(I'm a 21st century liability)
(It's all bollocks)
We're all made from the spawn of the devil
21st Century Liability was written by Martin Terefe & Matt Schwartz & YUNGBLUD.
21st Century Liability was produced by Martin Terefe & Matt Schwartz.
YUNGBLUD released 21st Century Liability on Fri May 04 2018.
I had the idea well before I had the actual song and I knew I wanted this to be my album title before I’d even written it. It just felt good.
This song is for anybody who feels misunderstood growing up in a world of anxiety, confusion and fear. It is a statement that liabilities or failures aren’t what we are, we may just think or behave in a different way to you but if you actually hear us out, we may well surprise you.
I had the main lyric for this before I went in for the session so once I got in the room with my producer the rest just came out of me. I was also listening to a fuck load of Rage Against The Machine at the time.
