On The Radio - Thunder

Back when I can barely remember

I was tuning in every night

Your mother wouldn’t like it was happening

Mixing up a soup so right, it was alright

Next day there was I believing

That I could ride the airwaves too

Heaven knows what I was thinking

Didn’t matter what I tried to do

So tell me what i wanna know

What did I do to make it so?

'Cause I know you never gonna

Play this on the radio

Record company got me a plugger

A charming man in every way

So I paid him lots of money to tell me

It’s been a tough week, what can I say

Were you killed by video?

'Cause I can’t get you on the phone

So I know you’re never gonna get this on the radio

People come to watch the show

'Cause my aim is straight and true

Twenty years I’ve made a living at this

No thanks to you and the TV too!

Fuck You…

I know I never went to art school

I was never in the NME

I got no chance of sleeping with Kate Moss

What the hell is wrong with me?

Who did I forget to blow?

Should I go on a reality show?

Maybe then you’d vote for me

'Cause I can’t get on the BBC

The playlist was my Grail of gold

I tried and failed to sell my soul

So I know you’re never gonna hear this

Playing on the radio

Ain’t gonna hear it

Playing on the radio
