The Modern Age is an EP with three songs written by Julian Casablancas, lead singer of the band The Strokes. The Modern Age was released in early 2001 in England on the independent label Rough Trade.
This is the band’s first studio recording. There are slight differences in the lyrics and melodies...
[Verse 1]
Up on a hill, here's where we begin
This little story, a long time ago
Start to pretend, stop pretending
It seems this game is simply never-ending
[Pre-Chorus]
In the sun, sun, having fun, it's in my blood
I just can't help it
Don't want you to say no, let me go
Oh, let me g-g-g-g-g-g-g-go, oh
[Chorus]
Leaving just in time, stay there for a while
Rolling in the ocean, trying to catch her eye
Work hard and say it's easy, do it just to please me
Tomorrow will be different, so I'll pretend
I'll pretеnd I'm leaving
[Verse 2]
I feel so different now, wе train at AVA
I wish you hadn't stayed, my vision's clearer now but I'm unafraid
I'm flying overseas, no time to feel the breeze
Uh, too many varieties
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, in the sun, sun, having fun, it's in my blood
I just can't help it
Don't want you here right now, let me go, ooh, oh
Why, let me g-g-g-g-g-g-g-go on
[Chorus]
Leaving just in time, stay there for a while
Rolling in the ocean, trying to catch her eye
Work hard and say it's easy, do it just to please me
Tomorrow it is different, and this is why I'm leaving
