[Verse 1]
In this modern world we're livin' in
The rules ain't like they've ever been
Speakin' of spreading it thin
That's what you do, flashing your soul
That ain't no way to treat your lover
It ain't no way to act with feelings
Baby, we better start turnin' 'em down

[Verse 2]
Is it the brave new wave we're roarin' in
Hanging out, out on the rock 'n roll fringe
Speaking of running around all over town, lettin' it show
That ain't no way to treat your lover
It ain't no way to act in public
Baby, we better start turnin' 'em down
Start turnin' 'em down

[Bridge]
It sure is clear ain't nothin' easy any more
It sure gets cloudy when I look in all directions
It sure is rainin' like this feeling in my heart
It sure is crazy how you're acting

[Guitar Solos]
[Verse 3]
And this latest craze or current trend
Burnin' money every way that you can
Speakin' of goin' for broke, that's how it is
You're lettin' 'em roll
That ain't no way to treat your lover
It ain't no way to act with strangers
Baby, we better start turnin' em down

[Outro]
I said baby, we better start turnin' em
Baby, we better start turnin' em
Baby, we better start turnin' 'em down
