Modern World

John Cale

    Continues after the ad

    In the shadows of the night come the friends of fantasy dancing
    forward toward
    The dawn, wrapped in coats of vanity. in the closets in the home
    hang the toasts
    Of days gone by, breaking every haunted scheme confusing
    thoughts with fantasy.
    This is the modern world, this is the modern world, this is the
    modern world.

    Continues after the ad

    In the backrooms where they wait, keeping time so patiently,
    playing cards and
    Casting lots, sit the last of judgement’s [all]? in their
    confusion to deceive,
    They miss the point so handily, filling every secret need. they
    succeed perfectly.
    This is the modern world, this is the modern world, this is the
    modern world.
