[Verse 1]

Hearts are breaking now, she says I don't care (I don't care)

It ain't my business, nose in the air

Hell is breaking loose, she says I don't mind (I don't mind)

She's got new things to take up her time

[Pre-Chorus]

Little white lies with matching suits and ties

I put her in her place

I'm all alone and I'm getting stoned, staring off into space

[Chorus]

It makes me shiver, it makes me shake

You wanna give, give, give

But I don't wanna take

I'm hit

Getting modern kicks

[Verse 1]

Hearts are breaking now, she says I don't care (I don't care)

It ain't my business, nose in the air

Hell is breaking loose, she says I don't mind (I don't mind)

She's got new things to take up her time

[Pre-Chorus]

Little white lies with matching suits and ties

I put her in her place

I'm all alone and I'm getting stoned, staring off into space

[Bridge]

Well I'm gonna do just what I will

And I'm going away unless she's throwing up or sick

Of getting modern kicks

[Pre-Chorus]

Little white lies with matching suits and ties

I put her in her place

And I'm all alone and I'm getting stoned, staring off into space

[Chorus]

It makes me shiver

It makes me shake

You wanna give, give, give, but I don't wanna take

I'm hit

Getting modern kicks

[Outro]

Modern kicks

I can't get modern kicks
