"Modern World" lyrics

"Modern World"

Well, there's sex in the sunny day
That shines down on Boylston Street
And I love the U.S.A
So share the modern world with me
Cause I'm in love with the U.S.A. now
I'm in love with the modern world now
Put down your cigarette
And drop out of B.U
Alright
That's right

Well, out in the afternoon
Out in the arid plane
We'll share a modern love
Under suburban rain
And me in love with the U.S.A. now
And me in love with the modern world now
Put down the cigarette
And act like a true girl, oh

Well, out on Route 9
It's bleak and nearly dying
Stop all this weak stuff
And drop out of B.U.!
With me in love with the U.S.A. now
Me in love with the modern world now
Put down the cigarette
And drop out of high school, oh
Oh, that's right

Well, I'm in love with the U.S.A. now
I'm in love with the modern world now
Put down the cigarette
And act like a true girl

Well, listen
Well, the modern world is not so bad
Not like the students say
In fact I'd be in heaven
If you'd share the modern world with me
With me in love with the U.S.A. now
With me in love with the modern world now
Put down the cigarette
And share the modern world with me
