Billy Joel

Modern Woman

 

 

 

You see her sitting with her coffee and her paper

With her high top sneakers of Italian design

With a long cool stare she aggravates the tension

Makes up her face while she makes up her mind

 

Now you're in trouble, maybe she's an intellectual

What if she figures out you're not very smart

Or maybe she's the quiet type who's into heavy metal

Boy, you got to get it settled

Cause she's breaking your heart

 

Don't try to put on an act

You can't do that to a modern woman

And you're an old fashioned man

She understands the things you're doin'

She's a modern woman

 

She looks sleek and she seems so professional

She's got a lot of confidence, it's easy to see

You want to make a move

But you feel so inferior

Cause under that exterior

Is someone who's free

 

She's got style and she's got her own money

So she's not another honey you can quickly disarm

She's got the eyes that make you realize

She won't be hypnotized by your usual charm

 

You've got your plan of attack

That won't attract the modern woman

Whe you're an old fashioned man

She understands the things you're doin'

She's a modern woman

 

Time goes by and you're sharing an apartment

She says she loves you but she doesn't know why

In the morning she leaves you with your coffee and your paper

It's a strange situation for an old fashioned guy

 

But times have changed

Things are not the same, baby

You overcame such a bad attitude

Rock and roll just used to be for kicks

And nowadays it's politics

And after 1986 what else could be new

 

You got to learn to relax

And face the facts of modern woman

And you're an old fashioned man

She understands the things you're doin'

She's a modern woman
