Modern Girl - Countdown Chartbusters
He wakes and says hello
Turns on the breakfast show
She fixes coffee while he takes a shower
Hey that was great he said
I wish we could stay in bed
But I got to be at work
In less than an hour
She manages a smile as
He walks out the door
She's a modern girl who's
Been though this movie before
She don't build her world 'round no single man
But she's gettin' by doin' what she can
She is free to be what she wants to be
All what she wants to be
Is a modern girl
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na she's a modern girl
It looks like rain again
She takes a train again
She's on her way again through London town
Where she keeps a tangerine
Flicks through a magazine
Until it's time to leave
Her dreams on the underground
She walks to the office like everyone else
An independent lady takin' care of herself
She's been dreaming 'bout it all day long
As soon as she gets home
It's him on the telephone
He asks her to dinner
She says I'm not free
Tonight I'm going to stay
At home and watch my TV
I don't build my world 'round no single man
But I'm gettin' by doin' what I can
I am free to be what I want to be
All what I want to be is a modern girl
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na she's a modern girl
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na she's a modern girl
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na she's a modern girl
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na she's a modern girl
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na she's a modern girl
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na she's a modern girl
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na she's a modern girl
