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 through
this movie befo...re
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
'n all she wants to be
is a modern girl
Naa na na na na
Naa na na na na
Naa na na na na
she's a modern girl
It looks like rain again
she takes the train again
she's on her way again
through London town
where she
Eats 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 herse....lf
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
'n all she wants to be
is a modern girl
Naa na na na na
Naa na na na na
Naa na na na na
she's a modern girl
She's been dreaming
'bout him 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 gonna
stay at home
and watch my TV
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
'n all she wants to be
is a modern girl
Naa na na na na
Naa na na na na
Naa na na na na
she's a modern girl
