Lyrics

Well, there's sex in the sunny day That shines down on Bolyston Street And I love the USA So share the modern world with me 'Cause I'm in love with the USA now (I love the USA) I'm in love with the modern world now Put down the cigarette And drop out of B.U. Alright That's right Well, out in the afternoon Out in the arid plane We'll share a modern love Under suburban rain And me in love with the USA now (I love the USA) And me in love with the modern world now Put down the cigarette And act like a true girl, oh Well, out on route nine Well, it's bleak and nearly dying Stop all this weak stuff And drop out of B.U. With me in love with the USA now (I love the USA) With me in love with the modern world now Put down the cigarette And drop out of high school, oh Oh, thats right Well, I'm in love with the USA now (I love the USA) Well, I'm in love with the modern world now Put down the cigarette And act like a true girl Well, listen Well, the modern world is not so bad Not like the students say In fact I'd be in heaven If you'd share the modern world with me We'd be in love with the USA now (I love the USA) We'd be in love with the modern world now Put down the cigarette And share the modern world with me
