FM Radio
from: Emerald
[Verse 1]
Hey, Mr. Lifeguard
Up in the big chair
Turn up the radio
You're looking good, yeah
Dancing at the snack bar, singing to each other
We know the words from a record back cover
We got Crawdaddy
We know what's going on
Sonny and Cher split
What took 'em so long?
The boys are strutting like a foxy lady
So sing it loud in your hairbrush, baby
[Chorus]
It's FM radio
Everywhere I go
FM radio
Call of the night
FM radio
Everywhere I go
FM radio
Call of the night
[Verse 2]
Lou Reed says he's
A bisexual
Jackson Browne is
An intellectual
Stevie Wonder bought a house for his mother
DJ telling us we're sister and brother
We are the cosmos
We are the glam kids
Putting stardust
On our eyelids
Nightbird's calling for a group meditation
Sending Patty Hearst a positive vibration
[Chorus]
FM radio
Everywhere I go
FM radio
Call of the night
FM radio
Everywhere I go
FM radio
Call of the night
[Verse 3]
It's in my pocket
When I'm sledding
My cousin's smoking pot
Before her wedding
Talking Cold War
And rocket launches
I'm talking disco
With my orthodontist
Who cranked Zeppelin?
The driver ed guy
Yelled "Barracuda"
Off the high dive
On a date with
A guy from band, he
Played a trumpet solo
It was Brandy!
Every night I do stuff with my hair
Maybe Queen needs a clarinet player
And the sailors say:
[Chorus]
FM radio
Everywhere I go
FM radio
Call of the night
FM radio
Everywhere I go
FM radio
Call of the night
[Verse 4]
Hey, little sister
Take off the headphones
Don't try to scrutinize
That's just a dead zone
Wake up the neighbors, tell me, how do you feel?
And live the fantasy that makes your life real
So if you wanna play
Follow your glory
And if some guy says
That's not your story
Take a lesson from the FM that I knew then
It's like a public pool; you decide where to jump in
[Bridge]
To feel the sexiness, the passion, and the fusion and the fission
Remember Bruce Springsteen divorced a model and
Married a musician!
[Chorus] (x3)

I'm Alison Steele, the Nightbird, and I'll fly again when 2 am rolls around. Join me
'Til then, love and peace. And a good day
