So here we are in the 21st-century.
Grab a seat, my friend!
If you’re feeling fresh and somewhat adventury,
we’ll strive to meet the trend.
We’ll learn, that is, just what to do
so as not to appear out of place.
We’ll learn to descry, we’ll learn to construe
the manner, the style, the pace
of our Good Lord’s Century 21.
A new millennium,
my friend, a whole new race to run!
And no reason at all to feel glum!
For they’ve fashioned this new, alternative life
they call the Internet.
If the real one’s filled with angst and strife
or involves a bit too much sweat,
just shelve your cares and fix your eyes
on the nearest available screen.
If you like, you can even sever ties
with that world of blue and green.
