On the Radio Lyrics

[00:16.66] Ah, ah, ah-duh-ah-uh
[00:19.02] Ah, ah, ah-duh-
[00:21.22] This is how it works
[00:23.43] It feels a little worse
[00:25.71] Than when we drove our hearse
[00:27.97] Right through that screaming crowd
[00:30.62] While laughin' up a storm
[00:32.83] Until we were just bone
[00:35.23] Until it got so warm
[00:37.48] That none of us could sleep
[00:39.95] And all the styrofoam
[00:42.29] Began to melt away
[00:44.34] We tried to find some worms
[00:46.89] To aid in the decay
[00:49.37] But none of 'em were home
[00:51.58] Inside their catacomb
[00:53.88] A million ancient bees
[00:56.20] Began to sting our knees
[00:58.73] While we were on our knees
[01:00.97] Prayin' that disease
[01:03.36] Would leave the ones we love
[01:05.77] And never come again
[01:08.41] On the radio
[01:10.24] We heard "November Rain"
[01:12.72] That solo's real long
[01:14.97] But it's a pretty song
[01:17.51] We listened to it twice
[01:19.85] 'Cause the DJ was aslee-eep
[01:25.48] Bum-bu-bu-bu-bum
[01:31.63] This is how it works
[01:33.89] You're young until you're not
[01:36.25] You love until you don't
[01:38.36] You try until you can't
[01:40.91] You laugh until you cry
[01:43.18] You cry until you laugh
[01:45.57] And everyone must breathe
[01:47.99] Until their dyin' breath
[01:50.51] No, this is how it works
[01:52.60] You peer inside yourself
[01:55.02] You take the things you like
[01:57.19] Then try to love the things you took
[01:59.76] And then you take that love you made
[02:02.02] And stick it into some
[02:04.43] Someone else's heart
[02:06.55] Pumpin' someone else's blood
[02:09.10] And walking arm in arm
[02:11.51] You hope it don't get harmed
[02:13.84] But even if it does
[02:16.10] You'll just do it all again, and
[02:18.64] On the radio
[02:20.93] You'll hear "November Rain"
[02:23.07] That solo's awful long
[02:25.51] But it's a good refrain
[02:27.94] You listen to it twice
[02:30.42] 'Cause the DJ is asleep
[02:32.73] On the radio (Oh-oh-oh)
[02:35.61] On the radio
[02:37.64] On the radio, uh-oh
[02:40.08] On the radio, uh-oh
[02:42.40] On the radio, uh-oh
[02:44.78] On the radio-oh-ohhh
[02:48.88] Mmm-mm
[02:50.35] Bum-ba-dum-ba-dum-bum
[02:55.04] Bum-ba-dum-ba-dum-bum
[02:58.09] Ba-da-dum
[03:00.14] Ba-da-dum
[03:02.51] Ohh-oh
[03:04.19] Ah, ah, ah-duh-ah-uh
[03:05.95] Ah, ah, ah-duh-ah-uh
[03:08.32] Ah, ah, ah-duh-ah-uh
[03:10.62] Ah, ah, ah-duh-ah-uh
[03:12.94] Ah, ah, ah-duh-ah-uh
[03:15.38] Ah, ah, ah-duh-ah-uh
[03:17.64] Ah, ah, ah-duh-ah-ah
[03:20.48]
