[Verse 1]
He’s a rebel and a runner
He’s a signal turning green
He’s a restless young romantic
Wants to run the big machine
He’s got a problem with his poisons
But you know he’ll find a cure
He’s cleaning up his systems
To keep his nature pure
[Hook]
Learning to match the beat of the Old World man
Learning to catch the heat of the Third World man
[Pre-Chorus 1]
He’s got to make his own mistakes
And learn to mend the mess he makes
[Chorus]
He’s old enough to know what’s right
But young enough not to choose it
He’s noble enough to win the world
But weak enough to lose it
He’s a New World man
[Verse 2]
He’s a radio receiver
Tuned to factories and farms
He’s a writer and arranger
And a young boy bearing arms
He’s got a problem with his power
Weapons on patrol
He’s got to walk a fine line
And keep his self-control
He’s a rebel and a runner
He’s a signal turning green
He’s a restless young romantic
Wants to run the big machine
He’s got a problem with his poisons
But you know he’ll find a cure
He’s cleaning up his systems
To keep his nature pure
[Hook]
Learning to match the beat of the Old World man
Learning to catch the heat of the Third World man
[Pre-Chorus 1]
He’s got to make his own mistakes
And learn to mend the mess he makes
[Chorus]
He’s old enough to know what’s right
But young enough not to choose it
He’s noble enough to win the world
But weak enough to lose it
He’s a New World man
[Verse 2]
He’s a radio receiver
Tuned to factories and farms
He’s a writer and arranger
And a young boy bearing arms
He’s got a problem with his power
Weapons on patrol
He’s got to walk a fine line
And keep his self-control
