twentieth century

Pet Shop Boys

Oh we learned a lesson from the twentieth century
I dont think we should just dismiss
after a hundred years of inhumanity
the lesson that I learned was this

Sometimes the solution, is worse than the problem
let?s stay together

Sometimes the solution, is worse than the problem
let?s stay together

Well I bought a ticket
to the revolution
and I cheered when the statues fell
Everyone came to destroy what was wicked
but they killed all that was good as well

Sometimes the solution, is worse than the problem
let?s stay together

Sometimes the solution, is worse than the problem
let?s stay together

Stay with me
this century
together we?re better

Oh we learned a lesson from the twentieth century
and maybe somewhat hit or miss
if you?ve certainty ?bout the way it?s so meant to be
the lesson that you need is this

Sometimes the solution, is worse than the problem
let?s stay together

Sometimes the solution, is worse than the problem
let?s stay together
