R.e.m. radio song lyrics

(Berry/Buck/Mills/Stipe)







Hey, I can't find nothing 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 crying, crying

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

I've everything to hide

Look into my eyes

Listen



When I got to the show

Yo, ho, ho

I could tell that you had been crying, crying

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

I've 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



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
