Verse 1
Oh yeah, I understand what you’re trying to say
You think I’m out of date
Well you can save your trouble, save your time
If I’m out of fashion I don’t mind
It can wait for me

Bridge 1
When you look around
Tell me what you see
Cos you know I’m out there somewhere
Do you ever see me?

Chorus
I’m not the faithful disciple, I’m not the perfect pupil
I’m not the lord arc angel, I’m not the boy next door
I don’t need to justify, don’t even try to question why
I’m ain’t a modern man, is that OK with you?
Cos what I do is what I feel, at least I know my life is real
I ain’t a modern man, is that OK with you?

Verse 2
It’s cool, if you don’t get what I’m about right now
I can understand
If you do, you do, if you don’t, you don’t
If you will, you must and if you can’t, you won’t
That’s the way it is, that’s the way it is

Bridge 1
When you look around
Tell me what you see
Cos you know I’m out there somewhere
Do you ever see me?

Chorus
I’m not the faithful disciple, I’m not the perfect pupil
I’m not the lord arc angel, I’m not the boy next door
I don’t need to justify, don’t even try to question why
I’m ain’t a modern man, is that OK with you?
Cos what I do is what I feel, at least I know my life is real
I ain’t a modern man, is that OK with you?

Middle 8
Seems to you the life I’ve found
Is back to front and upside down
The merry go round life I lead
Oh can’t you see it’s all I need
Your roller coasters much to fast
But did they tell you it won’t last?
And when your ride comes to an end
I’ll be coming round again

Chorus
I’m not the faithful disciple, I’m not the perfect pupil
I’m not the lord arc angel, I’m not the boy next door
I don’t need to justify, don’t even try to question why
I’m ain’t a modern man, is that OK with you?
Cos what I do is what I feel, at least I know my life is real
I ain’t a modern man, is that OK with you?

I don’t need to justify, don’t even try to question why
I’m ain’t a modern man, is that OK with you?
Cos what I do is what I feel, at least I know my life is real
I ain’t a modern man, is that OK with you?
