Murray Head - Modern Boy lyrics

See him coming down the street Can he catch your eye Will he stop you dead Or will he pa** you by Is he looking for a fight Could it be the way you're dressed Is he hungry for love Or is he merely self-obsessed He's a Modern Boy, always one step in front of you He's a Modern Boy You're never quite sure what he's gonna do. He's a Modern Boy. Modern Boy. See the tattoos on his arms The chains around his wrist Is it you he's after Are you on his list Check your wallet steady your feet He's getting awful near Stare at him back and be prepared But don't show any fear 'Coz he's a Modern Boy, always one step in front of you He's a Modern Boy You're never quite sure what he's gonna do. He's a Modern Boy. Modern Boy. How come you feel paranoia, creeping up your spine Each time you're face with something new He could be staring at you with nothing on his mind Or does he want something to do - it is you? All those horror stories that you've heard - will they come alive From the back of your mind to help you survive But as he pa**es by you realise He's a Chameleon of style A traitor to the week before The immortal juvenile He's a Modern Boy, always one step in front of you He's a Modern Boy And you're never quite sure what he's gonna do. He's a Modern Boy. Modern Boy
