My Turntable

My turntable is so cool

It knows exactly what to do

The Stooges sound like they're in my room

It plays The Fall right out-of-tune



Paid 50 bucks for it the other day

At a garage sale 'round the way

It plays records how they are meant to be played

Can't picture any other way



And it's black

And it's cool

And it knows just what to do

I wouldn't swap it for the world

It's my turntable



I tried all the major brands

I played all my favorite bands

The salesmen couldn't understand

What I wanted

What I wanted



I don't need one that plays five CD's

Picks up signals in Japanese

I don't want one that doesn't please

Please me, me



And it's black

And it's cool

And it knows just what to do

I wouldn't swap it for the world

It's my turntable

It's my turntable



My journey ended the other day

I found the one that suits in every way

Sat up my favorite record to play

Jonathan never sounded so great



And it's black

And it's cool

And it knows just what to do

I wouldn't swap it for the world

It's my turntable
