Today's Reading

. . . is from the Book Of Davies, Track 1, Verse 2

(this goes out to all you kids)

I was born in a welfare state
Ruled by bureaucracy
Controlled by civil servants
And people dressed in gray

Got no privacy
Got no liberty
Cause the 20th century people
Took it all away from me

I ain't got no ambition
I'm just disillusioned
I'm a 20th century man and I don't wanna be here

- 20th Century Man by The Kinks, composed by Ray Davies
