Peter Gabriel - Modern Love lyrics

[Peter Gabriel - Modern Love lyrics]

Ooh!

Hey, I'm feeling so dirty
You're looking so clean
And all you can give is a
Spin in your washing machine
I fly off to Rome to my prima bella
She leaves me in the
Rain with telescopic umbrella

Ah, the pain! Modern love can be a strain
Ah, the pain! Modern love can be a strain

I trusted my Venus was untouched in her shell
But the pearls
The pearls in her oyster were tacky as hell
For Lady Godiva I came incognito
But her driver had stolen her red hot Magneto

Ah, the pain! Modern love can be a strain
Ah, the pain! Modern love can be a strain



I don't know why they leave me in the lurch
To carry on the search
It's driving me up the wall
Pity, when I have so much passion
Romance is out of fashion
Can't handle modern love at all
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, yeah! Ooh
Ah, ooh

Hey, I worship Diana by the light of the moon
When I pull out my pipe
She screams out of tune
In Paris my heart sinks when
I see the Mona Lisa she gives me the wink
Then she shows me the freezer

Ah, the pain! Modern love can be a strain
Ah, the pain! Modern love can be a strain

Ah, the pain! Oh, the pain!
Ah, the pain! Oh, oh, the pain!
, give me the pain! Oh, the pain!
Yeah, the pain!
