Living on the edge of the century
See the world in revolution Spinning faster all the time We're heading for the end of something Just about to step across that line Oh, can't you see? We're staring in the face of reality Oh, you and me We're living on the edge of the century
Feel the way the earth is shaking Hear the rumble miles away Say goodby to checkpoint charlie Walls are falling every day Oh, can't you see? Every step we take we're making history Oh, you and me We're living on the edge of the century
[alternate 2nd verse from the 1999 tour] Feel the way the earth is shaking Fires and floods and hurricanes A voice cries out in revelation Say hello to y2k! Oh, can't you see? We're jumpin on the ledge of uncertainty Oh, you and me We're living on the edge of the century
Can't turn off the information Can't sit back in your easy chair Can't ignore a generation Better get ready cause we're almost there
We're moving at the speed of life Into a brave new world where the strong will survive The dawn's gonna break and I'll meet you On the other side
Can't stand still while the earth is turning Can't take cover til the coast is clear Can't play guitar while rome is burning Look our now cause the future's here
And we're moving at the speed of life Living on the edge On the edge of the century
