Radio Sucks Lyrics & Chords By Henning Pauly

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)...
