The latter version was also released as a single, and it's the one I use in the video. • Brett Gurewitz claimed that Bad Religion re-recorded it because their then-label Atlantic Records said they did not hear a single in that album and thought the song was a hit so they asked the band to redo it. • When also asked why 21st Century (Digital Boy) would be re-recorded for Stranger Than Fiction, Jay Bentley replied: • ...because we were playing it every night since 1989, '90. It wasn't that we weren't happy with it. I was thrilled with it. I thought it was a great song. Brett just happened to think that we were playing it better than we played it on the record. He just thought it was the one song of his that had a snowball's chance in hell of being popular. I think one of Brett's quests as a song writer was to write a pop hit. That's hard to do when you're in a punk rock band. He always thought that song could be a pop hit, and he fought for it to get on the record and to be a single. I eventually got tired of saying 'that's not what we do'. That's what he wanted to do when he was a member of the band at the time and we all went 'well, OK, if you feel that strongly about it, we'll put it on the record'. We have a very democratic process which is that if three members vote one way, then it's going to happen, unless one member feels so strongly about it, then we all just concede and say that's cool • The principal difference between the two versions is after the line everything I want I really need which is a play on King Crimson's 21st Century Schizoid Man . On the original Against the Grain version, as the song fades out, Graffin sings the title of the song four more times with a different word instead of digital (including 21st Century Schizoid Boy in reference to King Crimson's song) backed with another guitar solo. Stranger Than Fiction 's version ends with one final Ain't life a mystery? line. • Lyrics: • I can't believe it, the way you look sometimes • Like a trampled flag on a city street, oh yeah • And I don't want it, the things you're offering me • Symbolized bar code, quick Id, oh yeah • 'Cause I'm a 21st century digital boy • I don't know how to live but I've got a lot of toys • My Daddy's a lazy middle class intellectual • My Mommy's on Valium so ineffectual • Ain't life a mystery I'm • I can't explain it • The things you saying to me • It's going ya ya ya ya ya ya ya oh ya • 'Cause I'm a 21st century digital boy • I don't know how to read but I've got a lot of toys • My Daddy's a lazy middle class intellectual • My Mommy's on Valium so ineffectual, ain't life a mystery • Tried tell you about no control • But now I really don't know • And then you told me how bad you had to suffer • Is that really all you have to offer? • 'Cause I'm a 21st century digital boy • I don't know how to read but I've got a lot of toys • My Daddy's a lazy middle class intellectual • My Mommy's on Valium so ineffectual • That's what I yearn for • (21st century digital boy) • Neurosurgeons scream for more • (21st century digital boy) • Innocence raped with napalm fire • (21st century digital boy) • Anything I want I really need • (21st century digital boy) • Ain't life a mystery I'm • • Timecode: • 00:00 – Titles • 00:17 – Intro • 00:20 – Verse 1 • 00:51 – Chorus 1 • 01:17 – Verse 2 • 01:31 – Chorus 2 • 01:49 – Bridge • 02:04 – Guitar Solo • 02:22 – Chorus 3 • 02:36 – Outro
