Modern World
@70sMod
The lyrics mean as much to me today as they did then. 77-82
Pin-stripe suit Clean shirt and tie Stops off at the corner shop to buy The Times
She'll be lining up the cutlery, you know she's expecting me Polishing the glasses and pulling out the cork
You can't be weird in a strange town You'll be betrayed by your accent and manners
Walks off home does the last customer He is jealous of the man in the corner shop
Thought that I was a devil But I'm an angel waiting for my wings I was out to hurt you But I've no wish to ever cause you pain
Their mad eyes bulged, their flushed faces said The weak get crushed as the strong grow stronger
I read about the things that happen Throughout the world But don't believe in everything you see or hear
I wish that there was something I could do about it I wish that there was some way I could try to fight it
Why am I here and what have I done I see the answers place my trust in you
As each day goes by A little more You can't remember What it was you wanted, anyway
You was so open minded But by someone blinded And now your sign says closed
Hi, How are things in your little world I hope they're going well, and you are too

Arrive at the office Spot on time The clock on the wall Hasn't yet struck nine
Rape and murder throughout the land And they tell you that you're still a free man If this is freedom I don't understand
You asked me what's my pleasure A movie or a measure I'll have a cup of tea Clem Burke ❤️
