Young man - you've got the world by the tail
Young man - there's no way you can fail
Young man - you think that you've got it made
But your good times may be over
Young man - you'd better listen to me
Young man - you may face catastrophe, you can
Ignore it - put your head in the sand
But things will soon get out of hand

You'd better watch out for that Y2K, you'd better watch out for that Y2K
It's something called the millennium bug
You can't sweep it under the rug
You'd better watch out for that Y2K, you'd better watch out for that Y2K
It's Armageddon in this digital world
For all of you boys and girls

Young man - Your computer will crash
Young man - Your bank accounts out of cash
Old man - Your pacemaker will stop
The airplanes all will drop
Oh man - Your email's gone astray
Yo man - you'd better get down and pray because
No man - is gonna make it all right
You can't fix it overnight

It's all the fault of that Y2K, it's all the fault of that Y2K
It's the little bug that's gonna destroy
All your electronic toys
It's all the fault of that Y2K, it's all the fault of that Y2K
It's Armageddon in this digital world
For all of you boys and girls

Young man - but now don't you give in, we need
A Hero - for the millennium, not a
A Zero - who will turn tail & run
Or the world will come undone
Young man - don't you hesitate pick up the
Phone man - call Bill Gates and
Tell him - to get his nerdy butt here
We've got less than one year

To beat that Y2K, yeah we gotta beat that Y2K
I know we can do it, whip it we must
Or we will all turn to dust
If we don't beat that Y2K, yeah we gotta beat that Y2K
It's Armageddon in this digital world
For all of you boys and girls
