Joel Billy - Modern Woman Lyrics
You see her sitting with her coffee and her paperWith her high top sneakers of italian designWith a long cool stare she aggravates the tensionMakes up her face while she makes up her mindNow youre in trouble, maybe shes an intellectualWhat if she figures out youre not very smartOr maybe shes the quiet type whos into heavy metalBoy, you got to get it settledCause shes breaking your heartDont try to put on an actYou cant do that to a modern womanAnd youre an old fashioned manShe understands the things youre doinShes a modern womanShe looks sleek and she seems so professionalShes got a lot of confidence, its easy to seeYou want to make a moveBut you feel so inferiorCause under that exteriorIs someone whos freeShes got style and shes got her own moneySo shes not another honey you can quickly disarmShes got the eyes that make you realizeShe wont be hypnotized by your usual charmYouve got your plan of attackThat wont attract the modern womanWhen youre an old fashioned manShe understands the things youre doinShes a modern womanTime goes by and youre sharing an apartmentShe says she loves you but she doesnt know whyIn the morning she leaves you with your coffee and your paperIts a strange situation for an old fashioned guyBut times have changedThings are not the same, babyYou overcame such a bad attitudeRock and roll just used to be for kicksAnd nowadays its politicsAnd after 1986 what else could be newYou got to learn to relaxAnd face the facts of modern womanAnd youre an old fashioned manShe understands the things youre doinShes a modern woman
