Radio #2

(album: So Long, Astoria - 2003)

Meet me at midnight
At the broadcast tower
High above the hollywood sign
You bring your guitar and I'll bring my radio (radio)

Everyone will come from miles around
To witness this beautiful site
We'll set bonfires and pretend its the 4th of July

This is the starting of a brand new revolution
Bite the hand that feeds
Stand up and fight against messages that they're sending
Stop their frequency

You're always talking (its never ending)
It's about time that we turned off the radio
Call the request lines and tell them that it's over
You're always playing all of the same songs
Over and over again
It's about time that we all turned off the radio

We'll listen to b-sides and sing along
To anthems of the years gone by
Integrity and honesty will prevail tonight
When it's all over (when it's all over)
One question still remains
Why do so many bands never make it to the radio?

[chorus]

Look outside your FM dial
They're preaching lies in 4/4 time
A generation without a voice
It's stripped of pride
