The Modern World - Die Toten Hosen

THE MODERN WORLD — Paul Weller

This is a modern world, this is the modern world.

What kind of a fool do you think I am?

You think I know nothing of the modern world.

All my life has been the same

I’ve learned to live by hate and pain

It’s my inspiration drive —

I’ve learned more than you’ll ever know

Even at school I feld quite sure

That one day I would be on top

And I’d look down upon the map

The teachers who said I’d be nothing —

This is the modern world, that I’ve learnt about

This is the modern world, we don’t need no one

To tell us what’s right or wrong —

Say what you like, 'cause I don’t care

I know where I am and going too

It’s somewhere I won’t preview

Don’t have to explain myself to you

I don’t give two fucks about your review!
