She's So Modern Lyrics - A Tonic For The Troops - Boomtown Rats

She's so 20th century 

She's so 1970's 

She knows the right things to say 

She's got the right clothes to wear 

'Cos she's a modern girl, oh yeah 

A modern girl, yeah, ga-ga-ga-ga-ga 

A modern girl now, oh yeah 

And Suzie is a jewel 

She flashes when she smiles 

She's cunning and she's clever 

She got the lowdown in her files 

Magenta is the best 

You know, she really makes me laugh 

She's always tryin' her impressions 

She wants to be a photograph 

I gotta say now, she's so 20th century 

She's so 1970's 

She knows the right things to say 

She's got the right clothes to wear 

'Cos she's a modern girl, oh yeah 

A modern girl, yeah, ga-ga-ga-ga-ga 

A modern girl now, oh yeah 

She's so modern 

And Jean confided to me 

She's Mona Lisa's biggest fan 

She drew a mustache on her face 

She's always seen her as a man 

And Charlie, ain't no Nazi 

She likes to wear her leather boots 

'Cos it's exciting for the veterans 

And it's a tonic for the troops 

She's so 20th century 

She's so 1970's 

She knows the right things to say 

She's got the right clothes to wear 

'Cos she's a modern girl, oh yeah 

A modern girl, yeah, ga-ga-ga-ga-ga 

A modern girl now, oh yeah 

She's so m-m-m-m-modern 

She's so 20th century 

She's so 1970's 

She knows the right things to say 

She's got the right clothes to wear 

I tell you, she's so 20th century 

She's so 1970's 

She knows the right things to say 

She's got the right clothes to wear 

She's so modern
