[00:13.44] I was tuning in the shine on the light night dial
[00:17.02] doing anything my radio advised
[00:20.21] with every one of those late night stations
[00:23.29] playing songs bringing tears to me eyes
[00:25.72] I was seriously thinking about hiding the receiver
[00:26.36]
[00:30.02] when the switch broke 'cause it's old
[00:33.41] They're saying things that I can hardly believe.
[00:36.10] They really think we're getting out of control.
[00:38.85] Radio is a sound salvation
[00:41.65] Radio is cleaning up the nation
[00:46.14] They say you better listen to the voice of reason
[00:51.51] But they don't give you any choice
[00:57.09] 'cause they think that it's treason.
[01:01.27] So you had better do as you are told.
[01:09.38] You better listen to the radio.
[01:11.90] I wanna bite the hand that feeds me.
[01:13.66] I wanna bite that hand so badly.
[01:15.79] I want to make them wish they'd never seen me.
[01:19.03] Some of my friends sit around every evening
[01:25.27] and they worry about the times ahead
[01:28.53] But everybody else is overwhelmed by indifference
[01:31.72] and the promise of an early bed
[01:34.73] You either shut up or get cut up;
[01:36.79] they don't wanna hear about it.
[01:38.43] It's only inches on the reel-to-reel.
[01:41.82] And the radio is in the hands of such a lot of fools
[01:45.15] tryin' to anaesthetise the way that you feel
[01:48.34] Radio is a sound salvation
[01:51.10] Radio is cleaning up the nation
[01:55.55] They say you better listen to the voice of reason
[02:01.29] But they don't give you any choice
[02:02.92] 'cause they think that it's treason.
[02:06.59] So you had better do as you are told.
[02:10.21] You better listen to the radio.
[02:13.20]
[02:15.01] Wonderful radio
[02:15.45] Marvelous radio
[02:21.04] Wonderful radio
[02:24.53] Radio, radio...
