Modern Girl - Sheena Easton

He wakes and says hello turns on the breakfast show

She fixes coffee while he takes a shower

Hey that was great he said I wish we could stay in bed

But I got to be at work in less than an hour

She manages a smile as he walks out the door

She's a modern girl who's been through this movie before

She don't build her world 'round no single man

But she's gettin' by doin' what she can

She is free to be what she wants to be

All she wants to be is a modern girl

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na

She's a modern girl

It looks like rain again she takes the train again

She's on her way again through London town

Where she eats a tangerine flicks through a magazine

Until it's time to leave her dreams on the underground

She walks to the office like everyone else

An independent lady takin' care of herself

She don't build her world 'round no single man

But she's gettin' by doin' what she can

She is free to be what she wants to be

All she wants to be is a modern girl

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na

She's a modern girl

She's been dreaming 'bout him all day long

As soon as she gets home it's him on the telephone

He asks her to dinner she says I'm not free

Tonight I'm gonna stay at home and watch my TV

I don't build my world 'round no single man

But I'm gettin' by doin' what I can

I'm free to be what I wants to be

All I wants to be is a modern girl

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na

She's a modern girl

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na

She's a modern girl

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na

She's a modern girl

Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na
