I am the very model
of a modern Young Professional,
I’ve information valuable,
political and cultural.
I know the Age of Rock ‘n’ Roll,
the Happenings historical,
From Woodstock on to Altamont,
I know them categorical.
(chorus)
From Woodstock on to Altamont,
He knows them categorical!
I’m very well acquainted, too,
with markets economical,
I understand the trading,
both the blue chip and commodical,
And from The Wall Street Journal
I am teeming with a lot of news;
Though once a cheerful Radical,
I now read corporate interviews!
He was a cheerful Radical,
But now reads corporate interviews!
I’m also good at getting Rolfed
and undergoing therapy;
I’ve been through est and Synanon,
the whole wholistic care-apy;
In short, in matters valuable,
political and cultural,
I am the very model
of a modern Young Professional.
In short, in matters valuable,
political and cultural,
He is the very model of a Modern
Young Professional!
I know our mystic history,
I’ve read ‘On The Road’ by Kerouac,
I’ve spent springs in Fort Lauderdale,
to Nepal I’ve been there and back;
I’ve dealt in grams of Asian hash,
all quantities of cannabis —
But now I get high by the splash,
I am a man of Aramis.
But now he gets high by the splash,
He is a man of Aramis!
I’ve seen the revolutions,
both the cultural and the sexual,
And if another comes along,
I’m sure I’ll be contextual;
It’s quite a talent I have got,
to be modern to the minute —
Where once I marched on Washington,
now jogging is my limit.
Where once he marched on Washington,
now jogging is his limit!
I used to be a Weatherman,
but now I have an MBA,
And in my sauna I have hung
my files from the CIA,
My Apple is programmable
to calculate my IRA,
I have a Porsche, a hot tub too,
I’ve filled it up with Perrier.
He has a Porsche, a hot tub too,
He’s filled it up with Perrier!
I am the very model
of a modern Young Professional,
I’ve information valuable,
political and cultural;
I’ve been through oh so many fads,
some think me quite mercurial,
But I’ve come of age, for now I am —
Presidential Material!
He’s come of age and now he is —
Presidential Material!
