R.E.M. › Lyrics › Radio Song

Hey, I can't find nothin' on the radio
Yo! Turn to that station

The world is collapsing around our ears
I turned up the radio but I can't hear it

When I got to the house and I called you out
I could tell that you had been cryin' cryin'
It's that same sing song on the radio, it makes me sad
I meant to turn it off to say goodbye
To leave in quiet that radio song, hey, hey, hey

I've everything to show
(Everything to show)
I've everything to hide
(Everything to hide)
Look into my eyes, listen

When I got to the show, yo, ho, ho
I could tell that you had been cryin', cryin'
It's that same sing song and the DJ sucks, it makes me sad
I tried to turn it off to say goodbye, my love
That radio song, hey, hey, hey

The world is collapsing around our ears
I turned up the radio but I can't hear it, yeah

I tried to sing along but damn that radio song
Hey hey hey, hey, hey, hey

I've everything to show
(Everything to show)
I've everything to hide
(Everything to hide)
Look into my eyes, listen to the radio
I turned up the radio but I can't hear it
No, I can't hear it

Hey hey hey hey, say what
Hey hey hey, let me do that thing
Hey hey hey hey hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey hey hey hey hey, say what, say what, say what
Hey, hey, hey

Check it out, what are you saying? What are you playing?
Who are you obeying, day out day in?
Baby, baby, baby, baby that stuff is driving me crazy
DJs communicate to the masses, sex and violent classes
Now our children grow up prisoners, all their lives radio listeners
