Modern Girl Songtext

Once a beautiful Miss America married Mr. Right
Had a little baby girl, born on a stormy night
But that was once upon a time, now it's a brand new world
Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl
Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl
Somewhere just between the past and somethin' dawnin' new
There's a break in the chain, there's a skip in the clock
Girl that's where I'm gonna find you
Between the boy I was before and what I'm gonna be
There's a clash on the border, a flame in the sky
Girl that's where you're gonna find me

Can't you hear the planet groanin' like a broken down machine
Rusted with the guilty tears of fallen kings and queens
p,j. ,jk !h,,?d
But you and I stand innocent, baby it's a brand new world
Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl
Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl
[Gimme the future, gimme the future, gimme the future with a modern girl]

Bridge:

We're the son and the daughter on a new freeway
[Gimme the future, gimme the future]
Laughin' while the road maps blow away
[Gimme the future with a modern girl]
We're the son and the daughter and we ain't afraid
[Gimme the future, gimme the future]
Won't be makin' the mistakes our fathers made
[Gimme the future with a modern girl]
[Gimme the future, gimme the future] oh, gimme the future with a modern girl
[Gimme the future, gimme the future] oh, gimme the future with a modern girl

Once a beautiful Miss America married Mr. Right
Had a little baby boy, born on a stormy night
But that was once upon a time, now it's a brand new world

Gimme the future, gimme the future - gimme the future with a modern girl
