Modern Man |
| Give him something to hang on to |
| Give him something that won’t fade |
| Give him dreams that won’t be shattered |
| Give him a life with the bills all paid |
| But it never ever comes his way |
| They were telling him lies all day |
| Let him have a cast iron religion |
| Give him something that’s always right |
| Make love in one position |
| Give him justice without a fight |
| But it never ever comes his way |
| They were telling him lies all day |
| (I’m a modern man) what’s it like to be a modern man oh oh |
| With a vision of a life that can’t be found (I'm a modern man) |
| What’s it like to be a modern man oh oh |
| With a vision of a life that can’t be found |
| Let him have a life without conflict |
| While your at it give him everything he needs |
| He wants the cake and he wants the pudding |
| But he doesn’t ever want to bleed |
| But it never ever comes his way |
| They were telling him lies all day |
| (I’m a modern man) what’s it like to be a modern man oh oh |
| With a vision of a life that can’t be found |
| (I’m a modern man) what’s it like to be a modern man oh oh |
| With a vision of a life that can’t be found |
| You told him it was always black & white |
| You wound up living in a world of grey |
| But it never ever comes his way oh oh |
| (I’m a modern man) what’s it like to be a modern man oh oh |
| With a vision of a life that can’t be found |
| (I’m a modern man) what’s it like to be a modern man oh oh |
| With a vision of a life that can’t be found |
| (I'm a modern man) what’s it like to be a modern man oh oh (give me a life |
| without conflict) |
| With a vision of a life that can’t be found (give me everything I need) |
| (I'm a modern man) what’s it like to be a modern man oh oh (I want the cake |
| and I want the pudding) |
| With a vision of a life that can’t be found (but I don’t want to bleed) |
