20XX

Lyrics

[Non-Spoken Intro] In the year of 20XX, a super weird unit named Chonny Jash was making videos Experimenting with fashion and makeup, speculation ran rampant, prompting the man to write a song to the more… Unenlightened [Intro] One, two, three, four 20XX 20XX [Verse 1] Please help me see the line you've drawn between blue and pink I think, therefore I am I am, therefore I think It's plenty arbitrary, and yet still you're concerned That "He in heels and makeup simply must be a Her" [Verse 2] But I don't rеally know what you want me to tell you The futurе's already here and it's thrown out all your 'set' truths Half a hundred years can do a number on the progressive "A man in a crop top? Babe, don't be excessive Change is only fine if it's lying behind my line" You've had your time, now the pulpit and mic is mine And I know I'm preaching to the choir [Verse 3] But I don't see the need to be so perturbed It's okay (You're fine, mate) I swear it won't hurt And when you open your eyes, you'll see A whole new technicolour world [Chorus] You'll see it's 20XX Yeah, you can be who you want So I'ma keep it a little default 20XX Yeah, you can be coral, mauve, or cyan And still be a mega man [Verse 4] "Be who you are!" As long as it's someone that they've picked "Stay true to your heart!" As long as it's safe, tried, prosaic! "Make it your own!" As long as it's simple and formulaic Litmus tests show that seven in fifteen men are basic [Verse 5] I'm really feeling for the people born prior to me I guess I'm making good on my given port priority Fruity is as Fruity does, but that don't mean that I loathe the 'sir' (Dysphoria? I hardly know 'er!) And rumour says the pan man in feminine apparel Fucks with any audio in either of the stereo channels Or anywhere in between [Verse 6] So feel the groove and let the times be absurd It's okay (You're 'right, mate!) To keep that line blurred And if they're looking irate, check the date And let that motherfucker be heard [Chorus] Because it's 20XX Oh, the squares have had their time Now it's the era of the bent line Yeah, you had Just fifty-six But here are millions of colours on this planet So we're gonna run the whole damn gamut! 20XX Yeah, you can be who you want So I'ma keep it a little default 20XY And yet, they reckon it's a disguise "Two X chromosomes in a cis guy" [Bridge] I'm always happy to be the emissary of change I'm always happy to go into tomorrow Forsaking today But that don't mean that I need me to be rearranged No, I'm happy to stay Aw, fuck But I'm a slut for a key change *clearing throat* [Chorus] Because it's 20XX So there's no need to be shook When I start tearing up the guidebook 20XX Throw up your technicolour flags Sing it one more time! For the fans! 20XX Go tell the past to bow out Because the present's getting weird now 20XX So let's have some fun while we're here We don't know what'll happen next year 20XX
