Lyrics Modern History - The Auteurs

Modern History

Well the desk porter laughed
News of our legend and our exploits
Travelled car
From bell-hop to hired car
All this and more
Modern History
On the third floor
So is this where he died
Spend your life cutting words up With a knife
I light a candle for each night
You wate away your life
Modern history
On the third floor
Well theyЈ-e never gonna forget us WeЈ-e the most famous
People that they know
Went to a party
I didnЈ?
say a word
You donЈ?
know how lucky you were
You donЈ?
know how lucky you are
So we set fire to your room
And we bandaged up your
hands and arms — now
WhereЈ— your beauty gone
Modern history
On the third floor
