Pushing all the buttons
Trying to come to something
Flying with his feet on the ground
Full of dreams and visions
In a world of indecision
He ain't around to be pushed around
Been a long time coming on - take a look at him now
And the days of if are gone - 'cause he's showing us how
Knowledge fuels the mind of the few
In a way that no - one's found
Brave new answers screaming the truth
And the techno wins the crown
Chorus
Micro-kid with mega-thoughts
He is real, he is here, he is fashionable
Micro-kid speaks digitalk
If you hear what he says it's acceptable
Generating square waves
While computing new games
Finally gets the chips off his back
A smile is on his face
Erasing every trace
Of doubt that plagues the rest of the pack
And his brain stores memories - no alternatives could come in
He's the living remedy - times are better than they were then
Knowledge fuels the mind of the few
In a way that no-one's found
Brave new answers screaming the truth
And the techno wins the crown
Chorus (rpt.)
