This Is the Modern Songtext
von Mando Diao

I don′t laugh no longer, you see
That this is the modern day, my friend
Yesterday when you were something, you'd understand
And I don′t see no bright sky, you see
That this is the modern day, my friend
And this time it's for real, I hope that you understand

That this is the modern lifestyle, baby
This is the newborn daylight, you see
That this is the time we're scared of, baby
And there ain′t no stopping time ′cause
This is the modern
Ah, this is the modern
Ah, this is the modern
Ah, this is the modern

We ain't got no self-esteem, no brotherhood philosophy
We hang the old man out to dry, well it′s easier so
And we don't give life, we just kill ′
Cause murder gives us such a thrill
You better hide your soul 'cause you are not fashion here


That this is the modern lifestyle, baby
This is the newborn daylight, you see
That this is the time we′re scared of, baby
And there ain't no stopping time 'cause
This is the modern
Ah, this is the modern
Ah, this is the modern
Yeah, this is the modern

I don′t laugh no longer, you see
That this is the modern day, my friend
Yesterday when you were something, you′d understand

That this is the modern lifestyle, baby
This is the newborn daylight, baby
This is the time we're scared of, baby
And there ain′t no stopping time 'cause
This is the modern
Ah, this is the modern
This is the modern
Ah, this is the modern
Ah, this is the modern
Ah, this is the modern
Ah, this is the modern
Ah, this is the modern
