On the boulevard where broken dreams Breathe on the covers of my magazines And the rats pay homage to the local sleaze Before they bleed them dry There goes crazy Jean She's got electric eyes From the track box running up and down her thighs An ole' skinny boy he just looks outside and screams Hey you, Puerto Rican Fast cars (Fast cars) Fast living (Fast cars) What happened to my world? This ain't gonna love This ain't love This is being a knight in the modern world Living in hate in the modern world Ain't no black or white in the modern world Just you and me babe, in the modern world Well the mayor's hobby is doing crack While the homeless go hungry right out back And those union boys down on Bentno street Wouldn't know how to stack those cards And there's a trump card dealing in stocks and wives When the maple tree keeps 'em warm tonight See the apple rot watch the bugs they crawl On the steps of the Taj Mahal Cheap crime (Big crime) And lives (No time) What happened to my world? This ain't gonna love This ain't love Yeah this is life and death in the modern world This is what you get in the modern world And you better bet that in a modern world It's you and me babe Just you and me babe In the modern world Where there's nowhere to run to The modern world Better get your gun Hey Hey Yeah, it's a jungle out there Hey Well there's no tomorrow, but we got tonight I have to trade my blade for a thunder fight I was much too young for your Vietnam But there's a war going on in my homeland (This ain't love) (Well this ain't love) Well it's dog eat dog in the modern world Live and die in the modern world There's no way to sense it in the modern world It's you and me in the modern world Only heroes die in the modern world No one cries in the modern world And you gotta fight in the modern world 'Cause it's you and me babe You and me baby You and me babe In the modern world
