Lyrics for Modern Magic Formula

Hey little man Let me sing my song Or I'm gonna freak out freak out Become a dominator A violator You can't give it all that it needs You can't give it all that it needs You can't give it all that it needs You can't give it all that it needs All we need is A magic formula A whole new backbone Is what we're looking for So you wanted to change the world But I didn't believe you That's why we'll say goodbye to good old days son I'm trying the best I can But there's a white flag burning in the middle of our hands I'm tired of being exposed And I don't know how much more of this I can stand Hey heaven's whore Let me sing my song A cranial freak out freak out Freak out freak out... You can't give it all that it needs You can't give it all that it needs You can't give it all that it needs You can't give it all that it needs All we need is A magic formula A whole new backbone Is what we're looking for So you wanted to change the world But I didn't believe you That's why we'll say goodbye to good old days son I'm trying the best I can But there's a white flag burning in the middle of our hands I'm tired of being exposed And I don't know how much more of this I can stand I'm trying the best I can But there's a white flag burning in the middle of my hand I'm tired of being exposed And I don't know how much more of this I can stand
