Mod Girls
Timeless Longing: Mod Girls' Quest for Love and Identity
Lyrics
Out on the street, don't like what I see
Expressing dissatisfaction with the current street scene.
Always around, don't know who to be
Feeling a lack of a defined identity while always being present.
I'm just a girl who needs a boy
Describing herself as a girl in search of a boy.
What can I do I'm not a toy
Acknowledging her desire for genuine connection, not to be treated as an object.
See a face who can it be?
Noticing a face and questioning its identity.
I like him. Will he like me?
Expressing interest in someone and wondering if the feeling is mutual.
Mod girls can't be beat
Emphasizing the positive attributes of Mod girls.
Mod girls are real neat
Highlighting the excellence and appeal of Mod girls.
Mod girls can't be beat
Reiterating the unbeatable quality of Mod girls.
Mod girls are real neat
Reaffirming the real neatness of Mod girls.
Where has all the style gone today?
Reflecting on the disappearance of style in contemporary times.
Cool fashion belonged to yesterday
Commenting that cool fashion seems to belong to the past.
Mini skirts worn by flirts
Referencing mini skirts and flirts as elements of past fashion.
Handsome blokes in mohair suits
Describing stylish men in mohair suits from the past.
Take my scooter down the coast
Depicting a scene of riding a scooter down the coast.
Swing with the crowd I like most
Expressing a preference for socializing with a particular crowd.
Mod girls can't be beat
Repeating the assertion of the unbeatable nature of Mod girls.
Mod girls are real neat
Reiterating the real neatness of Mod girls.
Oh I was born in the wrong age
Expressing a feeling of being born in the wrong era.
I want to disappear on a history page
Desiring to escape the present and become a part of history.
Because the sixties was the place to show your face
Yearning for the vibrant social scene of the sixties.
Oh life was forever life was a race
Recalling a time when life seemed eternal and fast-paced.
Oh I was born in the wrong time and place
Expressing a sense of misplacement in the current time and location.
Mod girls can't be beat
Reaffirming the unbeatable quality of Mod girls.
Mod girls are real neat
Reiterating the real neatness of Mod girls.
