Edge Of The Century
Written by glen burtnik, bob burger

Living on the edge of the century
See the world in revolution
Spinning faster all the time
Were heading for the end of something
Just about to step across that line
Oh, cant you see?
Were staring in the face of reality
Oh, you and me
Were living on the edge of the century
Feel the way the earth is shaking
Hear the rumble miles away
Say goodby to checkpoint charlie
Walls are falling every day
Oh, cant you see?
Every step we take were making history
Oh, you and me
Were living on the edge of the century
[alternate 2nd verse from the 1999 tour]
Feel the way the earth is shaking
Fires and floods and hurricanes
A voice cries out in revelation
Say hello to y2k!
Oh, cant you see?
Were jumpin on the ledge of uncertainty
Oh, you and me
Were living on the edge of the century
Cant turn off the information
Cant sit back in your easy chair
Cant ignore a generation
Better get ready cause were almost there
Were moving at the speed of life
Into a brave new world where the strong will survive
The dawns gonna break and Ill meet you
On the other side
Cant stand still while the earth is turning
Cant take cover til the coast is clear
Cant play guitar while rome is burning
Look our now cause the futures here
And were moving at the speed of life
Living on the edge
On the edge of the century
song performed by Styx
