"Modern Living Symphony" lyrics
Joe's at work in a bar somewhere tryna pay his child support
Lookin' for a ticket to get out of there but he keeps on coming up short
Outside on the road there's a great divide to the right and to the left
The boys upstairs play either side to negotiate their theft
And we're just left
Giles pumps plastic down coast
A CEO so insincere
Such trials that result in time for most, pay him millions every year
On the frontlines it's a busy time but no one knows the score
There ain't much room in this heart of mine for a present day Cold War
And it's hard to find
A day where someone don't lose
Yeah, it's hard to find
Give me some of the good news
Won't someone be so kind
To help me with these issues?
Before we get bounced up, down to no end
In this modern living symphony again
Gunfire smoke, it ain't no joke in the West and in the East
Sent by seedy, greedy blokes who demand a prize for peace
Mary's on the floor outside her door because the landlord changed the locks
That zero hour contract ain't too far from smokin' rocks or tricks by the docks
And Holly-jo is raving because she found herself a spouse
But even with their savings they can't afford a house
Some walk the line, avoiding crime and standing on their feet
While others spend time stepping over bodies in the street
I'm beat
It's hard to find
A day where someone don't lose
Yeah, it's hard to find
Give me some of the good news
Won't someone be so kind
To help me with these issues?
Before we get bounced up, down to no end
In this modern living symphony
It's hard to find
A day where someone don't lose
Yeah, it's hard to find
Give me some of the good news
Won't someone be so kind
To help me with these issues?
Before we get bounced up, down to no end
In this modern living symphony again
In this modern living symphony again
In this modern living symphony again
Lookin' for a ticket to get out of there but he keeps on coming up short
Outside on the road there's a great divide to the right and to the left
The boys upstairs play either side to negotiate their theft
And we're just left
Giles pumps plastic down coast
A CEO so insincere
Such trials that result in time for most, pay him millions every year
On the frontlines it's a busy time but no one knows the score
There ain't much room in this heart of mine for a present day Cold War
And it's hard to find
A day where someone don't lose
Yeah, it's hard to find
Give me some of the good news
Won't someone be so kind
To help me with these issues?
Before we get bounced up, down to no end
In this modern living symphony again
Gunfire smoke, it ain't no joke in the West and in the East
Sent by seedy, greedy blokes who demand a prize for peace
Mary's on the floor outside her door because the landlord changed the locks
That zero hour contract ain't too far from smokin' rocks or tricks by the docks
And Holly-jo is raving because she found herself a spouse
But even with their savings they can't afford a house

Yeah, it's hard to find

Won't someone be so kind

Before we get bounced up, down to no end
In this modern living symphony
It's hard to find
A day where someone don't lose
Yeah, it's hard to find
Give me some of the good news
Won't someone be so kind
To help me with these issues?
Before we get bounced up, down to no end
In this modern living symphony again
In this modern living symphony again
In this modern living symphony again
