L.L. Cool J Lyrics for Song: I Can't Live Without My Radio
 Lyrics for Album: Radio [1985]
 
 
 
 7777>[Verse 1]
 
 My radio, believe me, I like it loud
 
 I'm the man with a box that can rock the crowd
 
 Walkin' down the street, to the hardcore beat
 
 While my JVC vibrates the concrete
 
 I'm sorry if you can't understand
 
 But I need a radio inside my hand
 
 Don't mean to offend other citizens
 
 But I kick my volume way past 10
 
 My story is rough, my neighbourhood is tough
 
 But I still sport gold, and I'm out to crush
 
 My name is Cool J, I devastate the show
 
 But I couldn't survive without my radio
 
 Terrorising my neighbours with the heavy bass
 
 I keep the suckas in fear by the look on my face
 
 My radio's bad from the Boulevard
 
 I'm a hip-hop gangster and my name is Todd
 
 Just stimulated by the beat, bust out the rhyme
 
 Get fresh batteries if it won't rewind
 
 Cos I play everyday, even on the subway
 
 I woulda got a summons but I ran away
 
 I'm the leader of the show, keepin' you on the go
 
 But I know I can't live without my radio
 
 
 
 [Verse 2]
 
 Suckas on my jock when I walk down the block
 
 I really don't care if you're jealous or not
 
 Cos I make the songs, you sing along
 
 And your radio's def when my record's on
 
 So get off the wall, become involved
 
 All your radio problems have now been solved
 
 My treacherous beats make ya ears respond
 
 And my radio's loud like a fire alarm
 
 The floor vibrates, the walls cave in
 
 The bass makes my eardrums seem thin
 
 Def sounds in my ride, yes the front and back
 
 You would think it was a party, not a Cadillac
 
 Cos I drive up to the ave, with the windows closed
 
 And my bass is so loud, it could rip your clothes
 
 My stereo's thumpin' like a savage beast
 
 The level on my power meter will not decrease
 
 Suckas get mad, cos the girlies scream
 
 And I'm still gettin' paid while you look at me mean
 
 I'm the leader of the show, keepin' you on the go
 
 But I know I can't live without my radio
 
 I'm the leader of the show, keepin' you on the go
 
 And I know I can't live without my radio
 
 
 
 [Verse 3]
 
 Don't touch that dial, I'll be upset
 
 Might go into a fit and rip off your neck
 
 Cos the radio's thumpin' when I'm down to play
 
 I'm the royal chief rocker LL Cool J
 
 Let your big butt bounce from right to left
 
 Cos it's a actual fact this jam is def
 
 Most definitely created by me
 
 Goin' down in radio history
 
 I'm good to go on your radio
 
 And I'm cold gettin' paid cos Rick said so
 
 Make the woofers wallop and your tweeters twitch
 
 Some jealous knuckleheads might try to dis
 
 But it's nuthin', ya frontin', ya girl I am stuntin'
 
 And my radio's loud enough to keep you gruntin'
 
 My name is Cool J, I'm from the rock
 
 Circulating through your radio non-stop
 
 I'm lookin' at the wires behind the cassette
 
 And now I'm on the right, standing on the eject
 
 Wearin' light blue Pumas, a whole lotta gold
 
 And jams like these keep me in control
 
 I'm the leader of the show, keepin' you on the go
 
 And I know I can't live without my radio
 
 
 
 [Verse 4]
 
 Your energy level starts to increase
 
 As my big beat is slowly released
 
 I'm on the radio and at the jam
 
 LL Cool J is who I am
 
 Imma make ya dance, boogie down and rock
 
 And you'll scratch and shake to my musical plot
 
 And to expand my musical plan
 
 Cut Creator, rock the beat with your hands
 
 
 
 That's right, so don't try to front the move
 
 As you become motivated by the funky groove
 
 You can see me and Earl chillin' on the block
 
 With my box cold kickin' with the gangster rock
 
 See people can't stop me, neither can the police
 
 I'm a musical maniac to say the least
 
 For you and your radio I made this for
 
 Cool J's here to devastate once more
 
 Pullin' all the girls, takin' out MCs
 
 If ya try to disrespect me, I just say Please!
 
 Here to command the hip-hop land
 
 Kick it live with a box inside my hand
 
 I'm the leader of the show, keepin' you on the go
 
 But I know I can't live without my radio
 
 
 
 Farmers Boulevard, yeah, you know that's where me and E hang out, cool
 
 out, you know what I'm sayin'? That's where the crib's at.
