Modern Girl
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She says what she wants to
She only does what she wants to do
She's always the first in line
For everything, every time
She cries when she wants to
She makes you laugh when she laughs at you
She's in love with a small-town guy
And fancy things and dragonflies
She's a modern girl
She's always sure about her point of view
She's never talking with; she's talking to
She's perfectly wonderful
Whoa-ohh-ohh, whoa-ohh-ohh
Whoa-ohh-ohhhh-oohhhhhhh
When she was younger, her hair was dyed blue
She was into rock and roll, but she was a cheerleader, too
She loves her mother, but they argue now and then
About the wedding plans and the money that she spends
She only wears name-brand clothes
She's out to dinner and a picture show
She drives a little red car with vanity plates
She's always on her way to some better place
She's a modern girl
She's always sure about her point of view
She's never talking with; she's talking to
She's perfectly wonderful
She's a modern girl
She's at the mall every afternoon
She's got a presence that can fill the room
She's perfectly wonderful
Whoa-ohh-ohh, whoa-ohh-ohh
Whoa-ohh-ohhhh-oohhhhhhh
She'll do anything to make you talk, to make you sit and stay
You're never going to get away
She'll do anything to make you laugh, to tell you about her day
All about her day
She got her name on the guest list
She's gonna kill me when she hears this
She's a little too sure, a little bit wild
She's the first to volunteer, but she's the middle child
She's the middle child
She's a modern girl
She's always sure about her point of view
She's never talking with; she's talking to
She's perfectly wonderful
She's a modern girl
She's at the mall every afternoon
She's got a presence that can fill the room
She's perfectly wonderful
She's a modern girl
[She's always sure about her point of view]
She's a modern girl
[She's never talking with; she's talking to]
She's a modern girl
[She's at the mall every afternoon]
She's perfectly wonderful
[Got a presence that can fill the room]
She's a modern girl, a modern girl
[She's always sure about her point of view]
She's perfectly wonderful
[She's never talking with; she's talking to]
She's a modern girl
[She's at the mall every afternoon]
Oh, she's a modern girl
[Got a presence that can fill the room]
Yeeaaaaahhhh, whoa-ohh.
[She's always sure about her point of view]
She's perfectly wonderful
[She's never talking with; she's talking to]
She's a modern girl
[She's at the mall every afternoon]
Whoa-ohh-ohh
[She's got a presence that can fill the room]
She's a modern girl
