3rd single from The Chords UK's BIG CITY DREAMS alum
lyrics
TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY GIRL
Born in 97 in Camden Town...
she grew up fast ... grew up sound
A year at tech to a three-year college debt
for an admin job Down in Piccadilly
Monday night's a cheap night cinema ... she a 21st-century girl
Wednesdays a pop quiz down the Star ...in her 21st-century world
She post's her life Instagram & Facebook Likes
A dance, a date ... nothing serious get it straight
No wedding bells ... she a 21st-century girl
Her time is now ... but it won't last forever
Friday night's a night out in SOHO ...she a 21st-century girl
Saturday's a Market... Pimlico ... in her 21st-century world
Then it's flat mate's in ... Sipping wine & drinking gin
They trawl the net ... for flights on Easy Jet
with cheap hotels... she a 21st-century girl
Her time is now ... but it won't last forever
Born in 97 in Camden Town...she a 21st-century girl
she grew up fast ... she grew up sound …in a 21st-century girl
she a 21st-century girl in a 21st-century girl
she a 21st-century girl

When most of this was recorded I was a kid in the new wave era, discovering The Beatles and then Mod. All I Gotta Do especially, with its Beatles influence, reminds me of that time. OldMod67

This was a welcome release. Basically, Squire's first A side (from a split single) along with the other song from the accompanying LP. The perfect way to launch the re-issuing of Squire's fine run of 45s. A very early Mod revival single, this will also appeal to fans of the new wave/powerpop bands. OldMod67

A Nice little Ska sampler . a lot of great tracks, the best being The Scotch Bonnets - Sheena Is A Punk Rocker! Avoid the Sham 69 cover - just as bad as the original. Erasmus Windage
