Radio Sucks -

Five friends, one Volvo

Headed down the interstate

Ninety-nine miles to go

No more CDs to play

Extend your index now

Once you push eject

You picked 95.8 FM

But I’d rather choose death

It’s so hard to find

A channel that’s not clear

It’s like I’m listening to VH1

Anything but what I’d like to hear

At least I know that what I buy is what I like

I’m sure spinning pop moves merchandise

I wanna be free

I wanna go where radio will move me

Why shouldn’t we be

All riding on the waves of the industry?

They never play my favorite song

So I can never sing along

Wanna be free

But I am stuck right here with my radio

Every callbox on the roadside

Repeats like billboard tunes

I don’t think I’ll make it to number one this afternoon

By now all my friends are sleeping

Only I am left to drive

The DJ’s got the same ol' voice

Please release me from this life

Is that a cliff I see ahead?

Speed up a little now

Here comes the turn I’m s’posed to make

I straighten the car out

I wanna be free

I wanna go where radio will move me

Why shouldn’t we be

All riding on the waves of the industry?

They never play my favorite song

So I can never sing along

Wanna be free

But I’m stuck in mid air with my radio

Floating — to a sea of blue

Happy — cause radio you will die, too

And then I see a bright light

St. Peter’s at my window

His voice somehow sounds like

The DJ I left below

The pearly gates open

The angels start to sing

Oh my god am I in hell?

They’re singing top 40!

I wanna be free

I wanna go where radio will move me

Why shouldn’t we be

All riding on the waves of the industry?

They never play my favorite song

So I can never sing along

Wanna be free

But I’m stuck in hell with my radio

I wanna be free

I wanna go where radio will move me

Why shouldn’t we be

All riding on the waves of the industry?

They never play my favorite song

So I can never sing along

Wanna be free

But I’m stuck for eternity with my radio

For eter (nity)…

I don’t wanna be, I don’t wanna be stuck with my radio

I’m stuck in hell with my radio

For eter (nity)…
