Modern Times - Lyrics - J-five

Jonathan was born in 1983 in Los Angeles. He started his singing career in early 2004 with the song "Modern Times", which was a tribute to Charlie Chaplin. The song had success in a few European countries, peaking at number one in France and reaching silver status. That year he also released his first album, Sweet Little Nothing, which mixes rock, rap, funk, jazz and folk sounds.

And it's a Talent most people should learn How to Make you laugh without saying a word People have to yell nowadays to get heard But Charlie was a man and that man could turn Serious, into delirious, he had A myriad of ways to paint a smile, and Every woman in the house went, oh If they wanted to act, they better act on cue so Refrain He hicked the game go figure Had no time for gold diggers The Mack daddy of the 1930's, I'm Kicking back on the couch watching modern times One more time Rise 'em up Hold that thought I got a vision, it's intense I want a globe I can bounce off of people's heads And when the earth starts shaking, people will commence In a laughter, without one word being said Does anybody here want to hear my voice Or is silence the golden choice Refrain Ladies and gentlemen Can you hold the applause, the show is about to begin And it's a Talent most people should learn How to Make you laugh without saying a word People have to yell nowadays to get heard But Charlie was a man and that man could turn Serious, into delirious, he had A myriad of ways to paint a smile, and Every woman in the house went, oh If they wanted to act, they better act on cue so Refrain
