Used to be you could trust what you heard
The channels were three
When the news didn´t seem so absurd
The words set you free

Now they tell you what to think
And that the sky is green
Am I the only one that sees that it´s a big machine
Someone tell me...

How can we believe the world is round?
(I just can´t conceive it)
From all we see and hear the truth has drowned
(It´s all but disappeared)

How can we believe the world is round?
(It´s hard to perceive it)
Shake your head and scream but there´s no sound
(We´ve got the 21st Century Blues)

Now here we are everything´s upside down
It´s all a big lie

Someday soon they´re gonna shoot up the town
They won´t be denied

How many people got to die before we lend a hand
I can see myself living in their promised land
Someone help me

How can we believe the world is round?
(I just can´t conceive it)
From all we see and hear the truth has drowned
(It´s all but disappeared)

How can we believe the world is round?
(It´s hard to perceive it)
Shake your head and scream but there´s no sound
(We´ve got the 21st Century Blues)

Now they tell you what to think and that the sky is green

Am I the only one that sees that it´s a big machine
Someone tell me

How can we believe the world is round?
(I just can´t conceive it)
From all we see and hear the truth has drowned
(It´s all but disappeared)

How can we believe the world is round?
(It´s hard to perceive it)
Shake your head and scream but there´s no sound
(We´ve got the 21st Century Blues)
