Modern History - The Auteurs

Well the desk porter laughed

News of our legend and our exploits

Travelled car

From bell-hop to hired car

All this and more

Modern History

On the third floor

So is this where he died

Spend your life cutting words up With a knife

I light a candle for each night

You wate away your life

Modern history

On the third floor

Well theyЈ-e never gonna forget us WeЈ-e the most famous

People that they know

Went to a party

I didnЈ?

say a word

You donЈ?

know how lucky you were

You donЈ?

know how lucky you are

So we set fire to your room

And we bandaged up your

hands and arms — now

WhereЈ— your beauty gone
