Modern Man

by Arcade Fire

So I wait my turn, I’m a modern man
And the people behind me, they can’t understand
Makes me feel like
Makes me feel like

So I wait in line, I’m a modern man
And the people behind me, they can’t understand
Makes me feel like
Something don’t feel right

Like a record that’s skipping
I’m a modern man
And the clock keeps ticking
I’m a modern man
Makes me feel like
Makes me feel like

In my dream I was almost there
And you pulled me aside and said you’re going nowhere
They say we are the chosen few
But we’re wasted
And that’s why we’re still waiting
On a number from the modern man
Maybe when you’re older you will understand
Why you don’t feel right
Why you can’t sleep at night now

In line for a number but you don’t understand
Like a modern man
In line for a number but you don’t understand
Like a modern man

Oh I had a dream I was dreaming
And I feel I’m losing the feeling
Makes me feel like
Like something don’t feel right
I erase the number of the modern man
Want to break the mirror of the modern man
Makes me feel like
Makes me feel like

In my dream I was almost there
But you pulled me aside and said you’re going nowhere
I know we are the chosen few
But we’re wasted
And that’s why we’re still waiting
In line for a number but you don’t understand
Like a modern man
In like for a number but you don’t understand
Like a modern man

And you feel so right
But how come you can’t sleep at night?
In line for a number but you don’t understand
Like a modern man

I’m a modern man
I’m a modern man
I’m a modern man
I’m a modern man

"Once he was watching a play, when out of the blue, in the middle of the action, an extremely clever comic actor began counting, very slowly and with great concentration: one, two, three, four…, enunciating each of the numbers with the utmost deliberation, as if they had gotten away from him and he was gathering them up again: five, six, seven, eight… When he reached fifteen, the audience began to laugh, and by the time he had slowly and with greater and greater concentration made his way up to a hundred, people were falling off their seats.
At another performance the same actor sat down at a piano and began playing the left-hand accompaniment to a waltz: um pah pah, um pah pah. His right hand hung down at his side–there was no melody at all, just a continuous um pah pah, um pah pah–but he looked out at the audience meaningfully, as if the accompaniment itself were an exquisite musical achievement, worthy of great emotion, applause, delirium. And on he played–twenty, thirty, fifty, a hundred times: um pah pah, um pah pah. The audience began choking with laughter.
Yes, cross the border and you hear that fateful laughter. And if you go on farther, beyond laughter?
As Jan sees it, the Greek gods were once passionately involved in the affairs of man. Then they confined themselves to looking down from Olympus and laughing. And for ages now they have been asleep."

— Milan Kundera from The Book of Laughter and Forgetting
