What difference does it make If this was once upon a time You supply the stereo And I'll supply the rhymes I'm aided by machinery In hopes to reach your mind Can you hear me Can you hear me now Just a needle scratching ridges On this one-way plastic groove My vinyl destination My revolving imputation I am singing and I'm playing But my lips don't have to move Can you hear me Can you hear me now But just as loud and clear You hear this song come through the air It's funny, but it's as close as I can To really being there Frozen in this record Are fingerprints and messages Can you hear me Can you hear me now
