I can go anywhere anytime I choose I will never ever be a substitute Just set me free and then you'll watch me fly And heaven knows I'm a lucky guy Drop some blues and away we go Taking a trip down to the coast Oh yeah I was mod before you was a mod I was mod before you was a mod And you take me to a higher ground The coolest love that I have ever found Just set me free and then you watch me fly And heaven knows I'm a lucky guy I look cool in my bowling shoes My Ben Sherman shirt is a classic shade of blue 'Cause I was a mod before you was a mod Yeah I was mod before you was a mod We're moving out on a cool dance floor You're taking me down to a distant shore I'm grooving the night with Mr. Glove (?) He's telling me things that I didn't know 'Cause I was mod before you was a mod Yeah I was mod before you was a mod 'Cause I was mod before you was a mod Yeah I was mod before you was a mod And you take me to a higher ground The coolest love that I have ever found I'm taking a trip down to the coast I'm digging the scenes that I dig the most And I was mod before you was a mod Yeah I was mod before you was a mod
