Modern Times lyrics

I don't know what age it is

Better hole up inside

I don't belong

in these modern times

Escape the past

Dream of another

Call all the guards

Looks like we got a runner

Kick off the dogs

Corporate invasion

You can't gentrify the soul of a nation

And I swear the buildings

Moved to me overnight

I don't belong

in these modern times

Can't find the Lord

He's shaking hands with Big Brother

Can't hide forever in the womb of your mother

All aboard

It's a permanent vacation

Bathe in the water of your mind's mutilation

And I swear the buildings

Move to me overnight

I'm holding on to days gone by

gone by

I don't belong

in the modern time

The oaks and the sage in the fields of gold

Birds and bees ain't never been told

The end is near as the morning light

In the maze in the mold I can't see the light

It fades like the days and the fire in my eyes

Destiny laughs in the face of denial

As the world spins by

In the modern time
