I don't love no longer you see that this is the modern day my friend,
And yesterday when you were something you'd understand.
And I don't see no bright sky you see that this is the modern day my friend,
And this time it's for real I hope that you understand.
That this is the modern lifestyle, baby.
This is the newborn daylight you'll see,
That this is the time we scared of, baby, and there ain't no stop in temper
This is the modern, and this is the modern!
And this is the modern, yeah, this is the modern!
We ain't got no self-esteem no brotherhood-philosophy,
We hang it on and out to dry well it's easier so.
And we don't give life we just kill cause murder gives us such a thrill,
You better hide your soul 'cause you are not fashioned here.
And this is the modern lifestyle, baby, this is the newborn daylight you see,
That this is the time we scared of, baby, and there ain't no stop in temper!
This is the modern, and this is the modern!
And this is the modern, yeah, this is the modern!
I don't laugh no longer you see that this is the modern day my friend,
And yesterday when you were something you'd understand.
And this is the modern lifestyle, baby
This is the newborn daylight, baby
This is the time we are scared of, baby
There ain't no stop in temper!
This is the modern, and this is the modern!
This is the modern, and this is the modern!
And this is the modern, and this is the modern,
And this is the modern, and this is the modern!
