Gave Up On My Radio

lyrics

I gave up on my radio
A long long time ago
Been a long time since it spoke to me
So I just had to let it go

Everything single things been bought and sold
Now they just give it away for free
Don't wanna pay for the drink but for the cup that they hold
So when it tastes like piss then don't come running to me

I turned off that radio ah ah ah
Turned off that radio

If now that's what they call music
I don't want to know
I can't stand It just keeps on playing me that same song from ten minutes ago

It's like hip hop but not for hip hop heads
It's like pop with all the hooks took out
It's like dance but can’t nobody really dance to it
And It's like we're living through a lyrical drought
It's like rocks gone dropped right off the map
Country is just pop with a twang
Indie is just a ruse - you're really buying from the man.

I gave up on my radio ah ah ah
gave up on my radio

I’d rather sit the dial between the channels
and listen to the static
We're in the Anal domain of the annals
I'd laugh if it weren't so tragic

Well I'd rather stick my ears in a meat grinder
And I'd rather pluck my eyes out of my head
I even rather sew my mouth up tight as a ducks behind
Than admit that music is dead


Shout to all the indie stations and internet radio dj’s supporting the underground bands and artists of all genres all across the world... without u, people wouldn’t hear my music and there would be no alternative to the outdated, sewn up, sold out mainstream! Peace! I’m out.
