Lyrics for Modern Man Hurricane Blues

When I was a boy Simple times, simple joy Ooh, and life was not full of hate and chaos Ooh, a modern man Lives in some kind of hurricane Ooh, I need your love to keep me calm When the world is a storm Hell fire man desire Downtown scream siren Ghetto gun drug lord Kill children stillborn Asphalt flesh bone Trash bag alley bomb Hey, hey, it's a sin About the shape the world is in Hey, hey, it's a shame Modern man hurricane Hey, hey, it's a sin About the shape the world is in Earth dump suck soil Sewer spit sea oil Toxic ocean chemical fish Man made death wish Hey, hey, it's a shame Modern man hurricane Ooh, I need your love to keep me calm Ooh, I need your love to keep me calm Ooh, I need your love to keep me calm When the world's a storm Hey, hey Modern man hurricane Hey, hey
