I hear the ringing of the telephone
|
No one's home and none of you can reach me
|
I'm alone and I feel fine
|
There's nothing anyone can sell to me
|
Nothing new, none of you can teach me
|
But I'm sure that you will try
|
|
I'm tired of living in the modern world
|
With pretty boys and plastic girls
|
Broken hearts, vanities that disease
|
|
I hear my music on the radio
|
What's that song from long ago they're still playing
|
Is it saying anything to you
|
Pretty people in the magazines
|
Play the part of kings and queens
|
Hair and make-up can cover up the ugly truth.
|
|
I'm tired of living in the modern world
|
With pretty boys and plastic girls
|
Broken hearts, vanities that disease
|
It really doesn't mean a thing to me
|
It really doesn't mean a thing to me
|
|
I'm tired of living in the modern world
|
With pretty boys and plastic girls
|
Broken hearts, vanities that disease
|
|
I hear the ringing of the telephone
|
No one's home and none of you can reach me
|
I'm alone and I feel fine
|
|
I'm tired of living in the modern world
|
With pretty boys and plastic girls
|
Broken hearts, vanities that disease
|
It really doesn't mean a thing to me
|
It really doesn't mean a thing to me
|
It really doesn't mean a thing to me
