"Modern Magic Formula" lyrics

"Modern Magic Formula"

Hey little man, let me sing my song
Or I'm gonna freak out, freak out
Become a dominator, a violator

You can't give it all that it needs
You can't give it all that it needs
[x2]

All we need is a magic formula
A whole new backbone
Is what we're looking for
So you wanted to change the world
But I didn't believe you
That's why we'll say goodbye to the good old days son
I'm trying the best I can
But there's a white flag burning in the middle of my hand
I'm tired of being exposed
And I don't know how much more of this I can stand

Hey heaven's whore, let me sing my song
A cranial freak out, freak out, freak out, freak out

You can't give it all that it needs
You can't give it all that it needs
[x2]

All we need is a magic formula
A whole new backbone
Is what we're looking for
So you wanted to change the world
But I didn't believe you
That's why we'll say goodbye to the good old days son
I'm trying the best I can
But there's a white flag burning in the middle of my hand
I'm tired of being exposed
And I don't know how much more of this I can stand

I'm trying the best I can
But there's a white flag burning in the middle of my hand
I'm tired of being exposed
And I don't know how much more of this I can stand
