You see her sitting with her coffee and her paper
  With her high top sneakers of italian design
  With a long cool stare she aggravates the tension
  Makes up her face while she makes up her mind
  
  Now you're in trouble, maybe she's an intellectual
  What if she figures out you're not very smart
  Or maybe she's the quiet type who's into heavy metal
  Boy, you got to get it settled
  Cause she's breaking your heart
  
  Don't try to put on an act
  You can't do that to a modern woman
  And you're an old fashioned man
  She understands the things you're doin'
  She's a modern woman
  
  She looks sleek and she seems so professional
  She's got a lot of confidence, it's easy to see
  You want to make a move
  But you feel so inferior
  Cause under that exterior
  Is someone who's free
  
  She's got style and she's got her own money
  So she's not another honey you can quickly disarm
  She's got the eyes that make you realize
  She won't be hypnotized by your usual charm
  
  You've got your plan of attack
  That won't attract the modern woman
  Whe you're an old fashioned man
  She understands the things you're doin'
  She's a modern woman
  
  Time goes by and you're sharing an apartment
  She says she loves you but she doesn't know why
  In the morning she leaves you with your coffee and your paper
  It's a strange situation for an old fashioned guy
  
  But times have changed
  Things are not the same, baby
  You overcame such a bad attitude
  Rock and roll just used to be for kicks
  And nowadays it's politics
  And after 1986 what else could be new
  
  You got to learn to relax
  And face the facts of modern woman
  And you're an old fashioned man
  She understands the things you're doin'
  She's a modern woman
