The Malcontent (The Modern World)

[00:05.68] I hear the ringing of the telephone
[00:12.07] No one's home and none of you can reach me
[00:17.54] I'm alone and I feel fine
[00:24.36] There's nothing anyone can sell to me
[00:27.35] There's nothing new, none of you can teach me
[00:33.24] But I'm sure that you will try
[00:39.20] I'm tired of living in the modern world
[00:42.76] With pretty boys and plastic girls
[00:47.41] Broken hearts, vanity's the disease
[00:55.57] I hear my music on the radio
[00:59.03] What's that song from long ago they're still playing
[01:04.48] Is it saying anything to you
[01:10.91] Pretty people in the magazines
[01:14.44] Play the part of kings and queens
[01:18.53] Hair and makeup can cover up the ugly truth
[01:26.91] I'm tired of living in the modern world
[01:29.96] With pretty boys and plastic girls
[01:34.16] Broken hearts, vanity's the disease
[01:42.25] It really doesn't mean a thing to me
[01:45.81] It really doesn't mean a thing to me
[01:50.47] I'm tired of living in the modern world
[02:09.32] With pretty boys and plastic girls
[02:14.29] Broken hearts, vanity's the disease
[02:22.33] I hear the ringing of the telephone
[02:25.72] No one's home and none of you can reach me
[02:31.37] I'm alone and I feel fine
[02:36.29] I'm tired of living in the modern world
[02:39.50] With pretty boys and plastic girls
[02:43.51] Broken hearts, vanity's the disease
[02:51.02] It really doesn't mean a thing to me
[02:54.72] It really doesn't mean a thing to me
[02:58.60] It really doesn't mean a thing to me
