All my life I needed a friend Modern love, it's so easy to bend Sitting right here with the drinks and a beer The warm smile, learnt the national cheer Then the man with a hat You can take it like that Take it easy with the hard stuff Too much too soon So you think you're immune Take it easy with the hard stuff Slip outside Slip outside Proper love, I hadn't give it a kick People get what they never can give And when the inspiration is letting you down You get a guilty head, you start hanging around Then the man with a hat You can take it like that Take it easy with the hard stuff Too much too soon So you think you're immune Take it easy with the hard stuff Slip outside Slip outside Easy with the hard stuff Ooh, easy with the hard stuff Modern love It's leaving me low Modern love It's leaving me low Modern love It's leaving me low
