Modern History Lyrics

Well the desk porter laughed

 News of our legend and our exploits

 Travelled car

 From bell-hop to hired car

 All this and more

 Modern history

 On the third floor

 

 So is this where he died

 Spend your life cutting words up

 With a knife

 I light a candle for each night

 You wate away your life

 Modern history

 On the third floor

 

 Well theyre never gonna forget us

 Were the most famous

 People that they know

 Went to a party

 I didnt say a word

 You dont know how lucky you were

 You dont know how lucky you are

 

 So we set fire to your room

 And we bandaged up your

 Hands and arms - now

 Wheres your beauty gone

 

 Modern history

 On the third floor
