The Modern World (The Jam) lyrics
Soundtrack: Mama's Boy
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
Ive learned to live by hate and pain
Its my inspiration drive -
Ive learned more than youll ever know
Even at school I felt quite sure
That one day I would be on top
And Id look down upon the map
The teachers who said Id be nothing -
This is the modern world that Ive learnt about
This is the modern world, we dont need no one
To tell us whats right or wrong -
Say what you like cause I dont care
I know where I am and going too
Its somewhere I wont preview
Dont have to explain myself to you
I dont give two fucks about your review
Back to the Mama's Boy SoundtrackWhat 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
Ive learned to live by hate and pain
Its my inspiration drive -
Ive learned more than youll ever know
Even at school I felt quite sure
That one day I would be on top
And Id look down upon the map
The teachers who said Id be nothing -
This is the modern world that Ive learnt about
This is the modern world, we dont need no one
To tell us whats right or wrong -
Say what you like cause I dont care
I know where I am and going too
Its somewhere I wont preview
Dont have to explain myself to you
I dont give two fucks about your review
