Women Of Today

Anywhere I stare, girls are always there in plenty

Nearly fully bloomed, curly and perfumed and scenty

And I get as high as I did when I was twenty

You carry me away, women of today

In their denim jeans, to the tv screen they glue me

Thoughts of ev'ry kind, in my dreamy mind pursue me

Can't they realise how their pretty eyes undo me

You're more than I can say, women of today

I'm completely attracted, it's true

But what does it take to make it with you

Back in sixty-two, all we had to do was flatter

With a little wine and a little line of chatter

But to modern birds, all the charming words don't matter

Oh, teach me what to say, women of today

Since the world began, woman was for man created

She may treat him rough, he may feel he's suffocated

Still he takes the knocks, like a fool intoxicated

You hold us in your sway, women of today

Walking down the street, good enough to eat, she thrills me

In a passing crowd, arrogant and proud, she chills me

Lying on the beach, just beyond my reach, it kills me

Near, yet so far away, women of today

You take your independence with ease

But I'm on my knees, oh, liberate me, please

Out of Adam's rib you have won your liberation

But you can't destroy that old girl meets boy vibration

Any guys's a nut who denies that gut sensation

You take my breath away, women of today
