Modern World |
| Mary’s selling flowers |
| On a stall in EC1 |
| Tonight she’ll be out looking for some fun |
| Her mate Gerry’s in the basement |
| He hasn’t got a home |
| But prides himself that he’s got most things done |
| Meanwhile I’m up on the roof |
| Waiting for the sun to shine |
| I haven’t got an excuse |
| So I’ll just keep my head down |
| David’s in the city |
| He’s just made a deal |
| And the boys they want to take his trousers down |
| So they buy some little pills |
| Which will make poor David ill |
| And the find themselves in some club downtown |
| Meanwhile I got off the roof |
| 'Cos the rain keeps pouring down |
| And I haven’t got a clue |
| Why there’s faith in all these clowns |
| This is the modern world… |
| Jim and Jane hit the grapevine |
| 'Cos they’re looking for a party |
| A secret number knows where it can be found |
| So they pick up Pete and Sheila |
| And they head down the M40 |
