Lyrics
POST - MODERN LOVE
Romeo and Juliet never would've worked today
She'dve married Paris
He'dve gone to school to get an M.B.A.
It seems like loves becoming more and more like AT&T
I'll take what I can from you
While you take what you can from me
Post-modern love, we're stuck with
Post-modern love, we're stuck with
Post-modern love, we're stuck with
Post-modern love, we're stuck
Ever since Liz Browning wrote down "How Do I Love Thee?"
We've O.D.'ed on always
Till death do us part was our philosophy
Forever was a concept made for checking out at thirty five
You may well live ninety years
But how the hell will love survive?
Post-modern love, we're stuck with
Post-modern love, we're stuck with
Post-modern love, we're stuck with
Post-modern love, we're stuck
It's time to toss those silly notions
Cloggin' up your head
Though God may well be still alive
Romantic love is dead
Post-modern love, we're stuck with
Post-modern love, we're stuck with
Post-modern love, we're stuck with
Post-modern love, we're stuck
