Modern Girl

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

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...
