Metropolitan

[Verse 1]
This is the modern world
And I should know
America raised me to be in the know, oh, oh, oh
Love yourself and
Go for the gusto
America raised me, don't you know?

[Chorus]
Well, life's just great for you and me
Solid gold, sweeter than honey
What a wonderful thing, living in the 20th century
Well, this is a modern world
If this is a modern world
Why do I feel so very out of place?

[Verse 2]
Murder and hate and
Revolution
The American pastime for everyone
Watch out for you brother and
Don't trust your mother
Their smiling faces don't mean a thing

[Chorus]
Well, life's just great for you and me
Solid gold, sweeter than honey
What a wonderful thing, living in the 20th century
Well, this is a modern world
If this is a modern world
Why do I feel so very out of place?

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Well, life's just great for you and me
Solid gold, sweeter than honey
What a wonderful thing, living in the 20th century
Well, this is a modern world
If this is a modern world
Why do I feel so very out of place?

[Outro]
The future looks so bright ahead
But I wonder
Will everyone be dead?
