Micro-Kid - Level 42

Pushing all the buttons

Trying to come to something

Flying with his feet on the ground

Full of dreams and visions

In a world of indecision

He ain’t around to be pushed around

Been a long time coming on — take a look at him now

And the days of if are gone — 'cause he’s showing us how

Knowledge fuels the mind of the few

In a way that no — one’s found

Brave new answers screaming the truth

And the techno wins the crown

Micro-kid with mega-thoughts

He is real, he is here, he is fashionable

Micro-kid speaks digitalk

If you hear what he says it’s acceptable

Generating square waves

While computing new games

Finally gets the chips off his back

A smile is on his face

Erasing every trace

Of doubt that plagues the rest of the pack

And his brain stores memories — no alternatives could come in He’s the living remedy — times are better than they were then

Knowledge fuels the mind of the few

In a way that no-one's found

Brave new answers screaming the truth

And the techno wins the crown
