You take your happy pill
Now you know you're having the time of your life
You follow what they give still you want more
You can still make it to paradise?
Living for the next best thing
It's gonna be hot and you want it
If you aim high you'll always win
'Cause it's now or it's never
Modern day m-m-modern day living
Nothing's quite what it was before
Modern day m-m-modern day living
Nothing feels like it did before
It's so 1984 and you just can't get enough of this
Modern day m-m-modern day living
You haven't quite figured it out
But you're certain black is white so they all say
You believe all the hype you have no doubt
Having it all will come your way
You can have your guns and toys
If it gives you something to do
You can make a lot of noise
'Cause it doesn't really matter
Modern day m-m-modern day living
Nothing's quite what it was before
Modern day m-m-modern day living
Nothing feels like it did before
It's so 1984 and you just can't get enough of this
Modern day m-m-modern day living
They're watching you, watching me, watching everything disappear.
Watching me, watching you, you will learn to love the fear
(Nothing's quite what it was before)
You'll love the fear
(Nothing feels like it did before)
'Cause you love the fear
It's so 1984 and you just can't get enough of this
Modern day m-m-modern day living
Modern day m-m-modern day living
Nothing's quite what it was before
Modern day m-m-modern day living
Nothing feels like it did before
It's so 1984 and you just can't get enough of this
Modern day m-m-modern day living
