David Bowie’s Modern Love: Lyrics and Analysis

David Bowie

Modern Love

I don’t want to go out
I won’t stay in
Get things done

I catch a paper boy
But things don’t really change
I’m standing in the wind

Modern love – walks on by
Modern love – gets me to the church on time
Church on time – terrifies me
Church on time – makes me party
Church on time – puts my
