LYRICS
INTRO
This is a modern world, This is the modern world.
VERSE 1
What kind of fool do you think I am?
To think I know nothing of the modern world.
MID EIGHT(i)
All my life it s been the same,
I ve learnt to live by hate and pain,
It s my inspiration trap.
VERSE 2
I ve learnt more than you ll ever know,
Even at school I felt quite sure,
MID EIGHT(ii)
That one day I would be on top,
Another dot upon the map,
The teachers who said I be nothing!
CHORUS
This is the modern world that I ve learnt about,
This is the modern world we don t need no-one,
To tell us whats right or wrong.
VERSE 3
Say what you like cos I don t care,
I know where I am and going to.
MID EIGHT(ii)
It s somewhere I won t preview,
To have to explain myself to you,
I don t give two s about you if you.*
CHORUS
This is the modern world that I ve learnt about,
This is the modern world we don t need no-one,
To tell us whats right or wrong.
OUTRO
Modern world this is this is this is this is,
This is this is this is,
Hey we don t need no-one,
To tell us whats right or wrong,
Ahh, This is a modern world, this is the modern world.
