Yeah, oh
One of those top nights of the year
And I see everyone's here
Oh, took me a long time to get it
But when its taken time
Think and don't forget it

You gotta live in this world, go diggin' the new
Live in this world, boy, tran or girl
Live in this world, oh, get diggin' the new

I can see we're really close to something
It's a feeling so near
But I got no time for the Luddites
Always lookin' back down the track
Saying, "Can you spot one more detail, Jack."

You gotta live in this world, go diggin' the new
Live in this world, boy, tran or girl
Live in this world, oh, get diggin' the new

Crashing head-on into the future
It won't even leave a dent
Just walk in like you own it
Remember, it ain't set in cement

You gotta live in this world
Live in this world, go diggin' the new
Live in this world, boy, tran or girl
Live in this world, get diggin' the new
Live in this world
You gotta live in this world, go diggin' the new
Live in this world, boy, tran or girl
Live in this world, oh, get diggin' the new
