Modern Day American Girl Lyrics

Woke up this morning and I put my feet on the cold floor
I fed the cat and washed the dishes from the night before
I took the movies back, the ones I tried to watch until dawn
But I fell asleep with all my make-up and the house lights on

I read the paper and I pour myself a cup of tea
I think about the world and I wonder how it pertains to me
So many people struggling in between what's right and what's wrong
While I fall asleep with all my make-up and the house lights on

Another day just come and gone

In this world
I am a modern day American girl
And I don't know if I like it
In this world
I am a modern day American girl
I got one hand in my pocket
Can I talk about it?

I've got so much information and no experience
Everything I want to do has already been done
I see my situation and the consequences
As I'm laying on the couch with the t.v. on
Just feeling comfortably numb

(Guitar solo)

I need some inspiration and some confidence
It's getting hard for me to get turned on
I see my situation and the consequences
As I'm laying on the couch with the t.v. on

Woke up this morning to the sound of someone at my door
It was a man and he was asking for my signature
He said, "It's for a special cause
To save the planet from its fate
And all we need are a million signatures
Before it gets too late"
I said, "I'd like to help, role up my sleeves
And join the cause, what do you need?"
"All we need is your money and you name on the line
Please sign in black, cash will do just fine"
I wrote a check, he talked the game
He said, "Thanks so much, Ms...what's your name?"
He shook my hand and when he was gone
I fell back into bed with all my make-up
And the house lights on

Another day just come and gone

In this world I am a modern day American girl
And I don't know if I like it
In this world I am a modern day American girl
I got one hand in my pocket

Oh, in this world I am a modern day American girl
