Everclear Lyrics for Song: Am Radio
 Lyrics for Album: Return To Santa Monica [2011]
 
 
 
 31552>{K exchange Los Angeles
 
 Portions of the day's programming are reproduced by means
 
 Of electrical transcriptions or tape recordings}
 
 
 
 The V.C.R. and the D.V.D.
 
 There wasn't none of that crap back in 1970
 
 We didn't know about a world wide web
 
 It was a whole different game being played back when I was a kid
 
 
 
 You wanna get down in a cool way?
 
 Picture yourself on a beautiful day
 
 Big bell bottoms and groovy long hair
 
 Just a walking in style with a portable C D player
 
 
 
 No, no, you would listen to the music on the AM radio
 
 Yeah, you could hear the music on the AM radio
 
 
 
 Flashback to '72 another summer in the neighborhood
 
 Hanging out with nothing to do
 
 Sometimes we'd go driving around in my sister's Pinto
 
 Cruisin' with the windows rolled down
 
 
 
 We'd listen to the radio station
 
 We were too damn poor to buy the 8 track tapes
 
 There wasn't any good time to want to be inside
 
 My mom would want to watch that TV all god damn night
 
 
 
 I'd be in bed with the radio on
 
 I would listen to it all night long
 
 Just to hear my favorite song
 
 
 
 You'd have to wait but you could hear it on the AM radio
 
 Yeah, you could hear the music on the AM radio
 
 
 
 I can still hear mama say
 
 "Boy turn that radio down!"
 
 Oh mom that show again
 
 I don't wanna watch that show
 
 Can we watch good times and cheeku on the net
 
 Or something cool, turn it off
 
 
 
 Things changed back in '75
 
 We were all growing up on the in and the outside
 
 We got in trouble with the police man
 
 We got busted getting high in the back of my friend's van
 
 
 
 I remember 1977, I started going to concerts
 
 And I saw the Led Zeppelin
 
 I got a guitar on a Christmas day I dreamed that Jimmy Page
 
 Would come to Santa Monica and teach me to play
 
 
 
 There isn't any other place that I need to go
 
 There isn't anything that I need to know
 
 I did not learn from the radio
 
 
 
 Yeah, when things get stupid and I just don't know
 
 Where to find my happy
 
 I listen to the music from the AM radio
 
 
 
 You could hear the music on the AM radio
 
 You could hear the music on the AM radio
 
 
 
 I like pop and I like soul
 
 I like rock but I never liked disco on the AM radio
 
 I like pop and I like soul
 
 I like rock but I never liked disco on the AM radio
 
 
 
 We like pop, we like soul, we like to rock
 
 But we never liked disco
 
 We like pop, we like soul, we like to rock
 
 But we never liked disco
 
 We like pop, we like soul, we like to rock
 
 But we never liked disco
 
 
 
 No we never liked disco
 
 No we never liked disco
 
 No we never liked disco
