Hearts are breaking now, she says I don't care (I don't care)
It ain't my business, nose in the air.
Hell is breaking loose, she says I don't mind (I don't mind)
She's got new things to take up her time.

Little white lies with matching suits and ties I put her in a place,
I'm all alone and I'm off getting stoned, staring off into space.

It makes me shiver it makes me shake,
You wanna give give give, but I don't wanna take from you,
Getting modern kicks.

Little white lies with matching suits and ties I put her in a place,

Well I'm gonna do just what I will,
And I'm going away unless she's throwing up or sick,
I'm getting modern kicks

Modern kicks... I can't get modern kicks
