Hey modern days, here we come |
|
But our feet are swollen and we got no place to stay |
|
But we hope it would still be okay |
|
'cos we brought champagne |
|
and we thought that there must be sleeping bags |
|
(in this very modern day) |
|
But we're all very proud to be here today |
|
The first of a thousand million modern days |
|
'Cos it's a scam, it's a royal kind of wham-bam figure |
|
It's abrieved in the sense of being up-john and senseless |
|
It's a see-saw sickness, it's a snake-bite, low-chant jive |
|
on the century's crime |
|
Well, it's a scam, it's a royal kind of wham-bam figure |
|
It's abrieved in the sense of being up-john and senseless |
|
It's a see-saw sickness, it's a snake-bite, low-chant jive |
|
on the century's crime |
|
Hey modern days, we are taken a-back |
|
We're a flame and a-gog, aloof and inhaled |
|
with a don-don briefcase, oh, wait for our call |
|
And I therefore shall declare |
|
that the stores shall be locked no more |
|
(no more), no more, (no more) |
|
Why shall men suffer, why shall there be freaks? |
|
Why am I still rehearsing a song when I oughta sleep? |
|
'Cos it's a scam, it's a royal kind of wham-bam figure |
|
It's abrieved in the sense of being up-john and senseless |
|
It's a see-saw sickness, it's a snake-bite, low-chant jive |
|
on the century's crime |
|
Well, it's a scam, it's a royal kind of wham-bam figure |
|
It's abrieved in the sense of being up-john and senseless |
|
It's a see-saw sickness, it's a snake-bite, low-chant jive |
|
on the century's crime |
|
Oh, chin-batty dour face, why did you go there? |
|
Sitting on a cold stone, waiting for the train home |
|
Hoping it would carry me home |
|
hoping you would carry me home |
|
Well, it's a scam, it's a royal kind of wham-bam figure |
|
It's abrieved in the sense of being up-john and senseless |

Chin-batty dour face, why did you go there? |
|
Sitting on a cold stone, waiting for the train home |
|
Hoping that the wind blows in the right direction |
|
Hoping someone's calling, offering protection |
|
Chin-batty dour face, why did you go there? |
|
Sitting on a cold stone, waiting for the train home |
|
Hoping that the wind blows in the right direction |
|
Hoping someone's calling, offering erection |
