I took a swandive out of innocence and landed on the screen
This ain't no game boy, this is now superhighway robbery
The net was closing in on me, I had to make a break
Like a mouse caught in a trap it's something you can't fake
Y2K - technology's taking over
Y2K - electronic rollercoaster
The future's out there someone said but you've gotta find it first
I learned a bit then learned some more really got a thirst
Took a megabyte to chewed it over spat out all the lumps
We need an army sort it out; kill the millennium bugs
Y2K - technology's taking over
Y2K - electronic rollercoaster
Y2K - technology's taking over
Y2K - electronic rollercoaster
So I'm up and running then I crash it says "access denied"
But at least I'll go down fighting swimming against the tide
Them bugs are really after me I've seen the video tape
Get your revenge in first backslash and escape
Y2K - technology's taking over
Y2K - electronic rollercoaster
