Modesty Plays lyrics

Modesty plays modesty plays Modesty plays modesty plays She may like caviar and cocktails She may like symphonies and sun But underneath the gown and high heels She's like a fully loaded gun Modesty plays modesty plays Modesty plays modesty plays The world is running out of heroes The world is running out of time Where are those martial arts maneuvers We're getting massacred by crime Well listen buddy don't you worry She may not look like genghis khan And she may talk about her manicure But she can sure get things done Modesty plays modesty plays Modesty plays modesty plays Don't underestimate the lady She may seem cultured and demure But there's another side and careful She'll hit you like a 2 x 4 The world is running out of heroes And everybody's out on bail As long as modesty is on our side Good will surely prevail Modesty plays modesty plays Modesty plays modesty plays
