Mark Heard - On The Radio lyrics

Greenback band of the hour Setting half the trends we know They've got the power They're on the radio Flap-trap terminal D.J. Repeating everything he know He picks the hits Hey, he's on the radio Just by flipping one bu*ton You got an instant song You needn't try to learn it 'Cause no one'll like it long Hark to the three word poet Making up the words as he goes But you'd never know it 'Cause he's on the radio Talkin' bout the radio Big wigs in ivory towers Gotcha forty songs to play You can hear them every hour While they're laughing to the bank each day Play it to me over and over Play it in your car on the go Play it on the jukebox Play it on the radio Pay no mind what you're playing But turn it up a whole lot more Be like your D.J. Be like your radio Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Now don't touch that dial And lemme hear you smile Ooo yeah - I said ooo yeah Join the crowd Turn it up loud
