Radio

(Shel Silverstein/D. Loccorriere) Lately, I've been givin' everything I've got to feeling alone Baby you got me livin' one of them hard luck songs on the radio Oh and I know, if I change the station I'll get the same song Hope it ain't on the top too long 'Cause I really couldn't take it but they kept on playin' it It's too unhappy and too close to home I don't want to hear it but the singer keeps singin' that song I gave you my love, you denied it Then I gave you my life, but you wouldn't stay And I hope you will return it to me someday I gave you my love, you denied it Then I gave you my life but you threw it away And I hope you will return it to me someday Some days I just sit around and kind of dream and watch the rain Or I'll pick up some ol' magazine of yours that I forgot to throw away Then I'll sleep a little or walk the floor, I'll smoke a lot more than I did before I'll call somebody I used to know, just to try to stay away from that radio 'Cause I really can't take it when they keep on playin' it It's so unhappy and so close to home I don't want to hear it but the singer keeps singin' that song I gave you my love, you denied it Then I gave you my life, but you wouldn't stay And I hope you will return it to me someday I gave you my love, you denied it Then I gave you my life but you threw it away And I hope you will return it to me someday I gave you my love, you denied it Then I gave you my life but you threw it away.....
