lyrics

I fell in love with a modern girl and it’s shame that all she
told me was a dirty word but I knew all along. I wish that
I was more than just an angry boy and I swear that I
have always used the magic word but I heard I was
wrong. I fell in love with a modern girl and all those
books they like to read they all have dirty words that I
know. Take some advice, don’t stress, life is short (it’s
time well spent) but my friend we’ve gotta go home.
I stole two kisses from a modern girl and it’s a shame
that I was done before I’d earned a third but I knew I
wasn’t strong. I wish that I could see what we were
really worth and if only I had listened to a single word oh
no I was too far gone. My dreams have changed so much
that I don’t feel the same, I laugh sometimes I don’t
remember your name. I laugh sometimes. Take some
advice, don’t stress, life is short (it’s time well spent) but
my friend we’ve gotta go home.
