  • One, two, three, four
    Whoa, yeah
    Yeah

    A Friday night, killer queens
    Hop a train, on the scene
    All the band, is in the wild
    Don't you dare touch the dial

    We dressed up like a heart attack for you
    We dressed up like a heart attack

    I'm talkin'
    Little jeans, tiny hat
    Evan Smith, tiny sax
    Drama kings, sing it loud
    Drag that shit all over town

    Play it like a heart attack for you
    We play it like a heart attack

    So kiss me on the cheek
    Make it a long goodbye
    Ooh, and all the modern girls
    (The modern girls)
    Shakin' their ass tonight

    La-la-la-la-la-la-la, love on a wire
    Oh, lookin' for a fight
    Ooh, and all the modern boys
    (The modern boys)
    Are goin' out tonight

    Oh (ohh-ohh-oh)
    (Ohh-ohh-ohh-oh)
    (Ohh-ohh-oh)
    (Ohh-ohh-ohh-oh)

    Changed my meds, changed the flight
    Bodies on, bodies wild
    Body cam, only flams
    Bleachers band only flams

    Playin' it like a heart attack for you
    We playin' it like a heart attack

    I guess I'm
    New Jersey's finest New Yorker
    Unreliable reporter
    Pop music hoarder
    Some guy playin' quarters
    But I'm wearin' a heart attack, baby
    A Mikey Freedom heart attack

    So kiss me on the cheek
    Make it a long goodbye
    Ooh, and all the modern girls
    (The modern girls)
    Shakin' their ass tonight

    La-la-la-la-la-la-la, love on a wire
    Oh, lookin' for a fight
    Ooh, and all the modern boys
    (The modern boys)
    Are goin' out tonight

    Oh

    (Ohh-ohh-oh)
    (Ohh-ohh-ohh-oh)
    (Ohh-ohh-oh)
    (Ohh-ohh-ohh-oh)
    (Ohh-ohh-oh) one, two, three
    Let's do this (ohh-ohh-ohh-oh)

    So kiss me on the cheek
    La-la-la-la, make it a long goodbye
    Ooh, and all the modern girls
    (The modern girls)
    Shakin' their ass tonight

    La-la-la-la-la-la-la, love on a wire
    Oh, lookin' for a fight
    Ooh, and all the modern boys
    (The modern boys)
    Are goin' out tonight

    It's like a modern girl (it's for the modern girls)
    (It's like a modern girl)
    It's like a modern boy, it's for the modern boys
    It's like the modern boys
