Modern Woman 

                                                      
She leans by the pool and she dares you to stare her down
                                                      
Her pulse never races and her feet never leave the ground
                            
Her teeth are shiny, they're so manicured
                      
She looks so distant, so self-assured
                                   
She'll take you home tonight, you'd better be alright
             
She's modern woman

                                                           
You'll never see the wind blow the style right out of her hair
                                                   
She's cool as a snake and some say it doesn't end there
                           
She's got a brand new hat, up-to-date shoes
               
Latest fashion, modern point of view
                                 
She never sits still, 'till she's over the hill
       
Modern woman

           							 
Oh, you'll never see her laugh, you'll never see her fret nor frown
        					                  
But the wheels of her mind go around and around and around, and around

Oh she's free as a bird and she goes wherever she please
She'll take you along if you'll just get up off your knees
She's got no strings, she likes it that way
No little babies crying all day
She doesn't need the fuss, it's so obvious
She's modern woman

Well these modern woman, they're all the same
They just want your body they don't want your brain
She'll bid you adieu when she's had enough of you
Modern woman

She looks so demure, you feel so insecure
Modern woman
She's cool as ice, she never looks twice
Modern woman
She never sits still, 'till she's over the hill
Modern woman
