It's 1980, it's another day
Can you come out to play?
I've been working in a factory
Every day until three
Calling "rocking" by a different name
They're calling it "new wave"

It's just another world
(It's a modern world) a modern world
(Modern boys) & modern girls
(In the modern world) a modern welt

Hey, you 'fraid to push the button?
I'm tired of pushing & shoving
Maybe not what you want
But baby it's all you got
& They're telling people not to fight
I gotta work it every time

It's just another world
(It's a modern world) a modern world
(Modern boys) & modern girls
(In the modern world) a modern welt

Now here we go, it's another day
Just like yesterday
I'm been working in the factory
Every day until three
Do you think to push the button?
Do you think we're in trouble or something?

It's just another world
(It's a modern world) a modern world
(Modern boys) & modern girls
(In the modern world) a modern welt

(Modern world)
