Modern Girl

(album: Don't Disturb This Groove - 1987)

Modern girl
Modern girl

I love a modern girl
Want you in my world
Tenfold, loud and clear
Now I hold you near

Modern girl, she's everywhere
Liberation dances
All the boys are free at last
Mother, it's a modern world

A strange love affair
Asking her to dance
Looking for typical romance
Shock to my system

I love a modern girl (Modern girl)
Want you in my world
Tenfold, loud and clear (Woo-hoo)
Now I hold you near (Oh, I wanna hold you near)

She's dangerous, behind the wheel
Winning is a passion
Heart of gold, and stainless steel
Better watch yourself, she's so real

A girl with eyes of fire
Hanging with the boys
Object of passion and desire
Subject of suspicion
Yeah, she's got the power (Got the power)
She's got the power (She's got the power)
And when she turns it on
It's something physical
That sends a shock to my system

I love a modern girl (Modern girl)
Want you in my world (In my world)
Tenfold, loud and clear (Sing it loud and clear)
Now I hold you near (Oh, I wanna hold you near)
I love a modern girl (Modern girl)
Want you in my world
Tenfold, loud and clear
Now I hold you near (Oh, I wanna hold you near)

(Ooh, she's a down-chick-a-down-down)
Modern girl (Down-down-down)
(Down-chick-a-down-down)
Modern girl (Down-down-down-down)
(Down-chick-a-down-down)
Modern girl (Down-down-down)
(Down-chick-a-down-down, down-down-down-down) A-hoo!
(Down-chick-a-down-down)
Modern girl (Down-down-down)
(Down-chick-a-down-down)
Modern girl (Down-down-down-down)
(Down-chick-a-down-down)
Modern girl (Down-down-down)
(Down-chick-a-chick-a, down-down-down-down) Hoo!

I love a modern girl (Modern girl)
Want you in my world
Tenfold, loud and clear
Now I hold you near (Oh, I wanna hold you near)
I love a modern girl (Modern girl)
Won't you say the word?
Tenfold, loud and clear
Now I hold you near (Oh, I wanna hold you near)
I love a modern girl (Modern girl)
Want you in my world

She's a modern, a modern, modern, a modern
Modern, a modern, modern, a modern girl (In a modern world)
She's a modern, a modern, modern, a modern
Modern, a modern, modern, a modern girl (In a modern world)
She's a modern, a modern, modern, a modern
Modern, a modern, modern, a modern girl
