[00:08.77] Perhaps I am a miscreation
[00:11.38] No one knows the truth there is no future here
[00:15.58] And you're the DJ speaks to my insomnia
[00:18.69] And laughs at all I had to fear
[00:21.49] Laughs at all I have to fear
[00:24.53] You always play the madman poets
[00:27.03] Vinyl vision grungy bands
[00:29.05] You never know who's still awake
[00:31.15] You never know who understands and
[00:33.77] Are you out there, can you hear this?
[00:35.99] Jimmy Olson, Johnny Memphis
[00:38.20] I was out here listening all the time
[00:43.91]
[00:44.61] And though the static walls surround me
[00:47.10] You were out there and you found me
[00:49.43] I was out here listening all the time
[00:54.85]
[00:55.56] Last night we drank in parking lots
[00:58.01] And why do we drink? I guess we do it 'cause.
[01:02.62] And when I turned your station on
[01:04.73] You sounded more familiar than that party was
[01:08.55] You were more familiar than that party
[01:11.13] It's the first time I stayed up all night
[01:13.86] It's getting light I hear the birds
[01:16.06] I'm driving home on empty streets
[01:18.28] I think I put my shirt on backwards
[01:20.89] Are you out there, can you hear this
[01:23.10] Jimmy Olson, Johnny Memphis
[01:25.40] I was out here listening all the time
[01:30.91]
[01:31.71] And though the static walls surround me
[01:34.16] You were out there and you found me
[01:36.22] I was out here listening all the time
[01:42.24]
[01:43.05] And what's the future, who will choose it?
[01:45.50] Politics of love and music
[01:47.72] Underdogs who turn the tables
[01:50.02] Indie versus major labels
[01:52.23] There's so much to see through
[01:53.93] Like our parents do more drugs than we do
[01:56.64] Oh
[02:00.98]
[02:03.49] Corporate parents, corporate towns
[02:05.24] I know every TV set that has them lit
[02:09.81] They preach that I should save the world
[02:11.91] They pray that I won't do a better job of it
[02:15.75] Pray that I won't do a better job
[02:18.54] So tonight I turned your station on
[02:20.96] Just so I'd be understood
[02:23.23] Instead another voice said I was just too late
[02:26.78] And just no good
[02:31.50] Calling Olson, Calling Memphis
[02:33.82] I am calling, can you hear this?
[02:35.92] I was out here listening all the time
[02:40.45] And I will write this down
[02:41.86] and then I will not be alone again yeah
[02:44.96] I was out here listening
[02:46.58] Oh yeah I was out here listening
[02:48.89] Oh yeah I am out here listening all the time
[02:56.24]
