Lyrics of Modern Day Ripoff by Iggy Pop
verse
She twisted my arm and I bought the farm
The law on her side, I wish I could hide
I'm guilty as sin, but I know how to win
I don't know how to die, I don't know how to cry
verse
I'm squirming in pain, it's twisting my brain
I carry the ball, I carry it all
And when I am done, I'm still looking for fun
My nose in the grind, I'm so sorry I signed
pre-chorus
This fortunate creature is my S&M teacher
It's a modern day rip off, modern day rip off
chorus
Modern age rip off
Modern age rip off
Rip off, rip off, rip off
verse
I got shit in my bucket, I wish I could say "Fuck it"
Publicity target, each day I enlarge it
A respectable person would not do so much cursing
At least I'm still kicking, am I smart or chicken?
verse
I ran out of blow a long time ago
I can't smoke a J or my guts fly away
This fortunate creature is my S&M teacher
Modern age rip off, modern age rip off
chorus
Modern age rip off
Rip off, rip off, rip off
Modern age
outro
Rip off, rip off, rip off
Rip off, rip off, rip off
Rip off (ohh), rip off (ahh)
outro
Oh-ah, I'm dying here
Writer(s): Duff Rose Mckagan, Chad Gaylord Smith, James Newell Osterberg Jr., Andrew Wotman
