Modern World |
| On the boulevard where broken dreams |
| Breathe on the covers of my magazines |
| And the rats pay homage to the local sleaze |
| Before they bleed them dry |
| There goes crazy Jean |
| She’s got electric eyes |
| From the trackbox running up and down her thighs |
| An ole' skinny boy he just looks outside and screams |
| Hey you Puerto-Rican |
| Fast cars |
| (Fast cars) |
| Fast living |
| (Fast cars) |
| What happened to my world? |
| This ain’t gonna love |
| This ain’t love |
| This is being a knight in the modern world |
| Living in hate in the modern world |
| Ain’t no black or white in the modern world |
| Just you and me babe, in the modern world |
| Well the mayor’s hobby is doing crack |
| While the homeless go hungry right out back |
| And those union boys down on Bentno street |
| Wouldn’t know how to stack those cards |
| And there’s a trump card dealing in stocks and wives |
| When the maple tree keeps 'em warm tonight |
| See the apple rot watch the bugs they crawl |
| On the steps of the Taj Mahal |
| Cheap crime |
| (Big crime) |
| And lives |
| (No time) |
| What happened to my world? |
| This ain’t gonna love |
| This ain’t love |
| Yeah this is life and death in the modern world |
| This is what you get in the modern world |
| And you better bet that in a modern world |
| It’s you and me babe, |
| Just you and me babe, |
| in the modern world |
| Where there’s nowhere to run to |
| The modern world |
| Better get your gun |
| Hey! |
| Hey! |
| Yeah, it’s a jungle out there |
| Hey! |
| Well there’s no tomorrow, but we got tonight |
| I have to trade my blade for a thunder fight |
| I was much too young for your Vietnam |
| But there’s a war going on in my homeland |
| (This ain’t love) |
| (Well this ain’t love) |
| Well it’s dog eat dog in the modern world |
| Live and die in the modern world |
| There’s no way to sense it in the modern world |
| It’s you and me in the modern world |
| Only heroes die in the modern world |
| No one cries in the modern world |
| And you gotta fight in the modern world |
| Cause it’s you and me babe |
| You and me baby |
| You and me babe |
| in the modern world |
