    Story Behind the Song
    "21st Century Girl" is Lola's defiant My Generation-X rant against conventionality. "I ain't going vacant like some Bellevue mommy matron" she proclaims to her legion of (primarily female) fans. The lyrics also reference Lola's personal style trend: "sophisti-punk" (which has yet to catch on in the rest of the country).

    Lyrics
    You can get yourself together
    Pretend you're doing better
    Clean up your act
    You can cover up your body art
    Deny what's in your grungy heart
    Turn it back

    You can lie a little life
    Be somebody's polished wife
    In a whitebread world
    If you sink beneath the surface
    In your four wheel kiddie circus
    I told you, girl

    If you want it, take it
    If you feel it, fake it
    If you love it, break it all

    If you're dreaming, wake it
    If you caught it, shake it
    If you doubt it, make it up

    You're a 21st Century Girl

    You can sleep until youÕre 50
    Or die and never hit me
    With all your junk
    But I'm not going vacant
    Like a Bellevue mommy matron
    Sophistipunk
