Paul Shaffer lyrics : "When The Radio Is On"

Radio!
I wake up in the morning
The first sound that I hear

Is that clock radio (RADIO) singing in my ear
I make it to the bathroom to brush my teeth
To that big city big beat

Jump into the shower, bring my box along
'Cause I know all the words to all the songs
DJ stops the music to announce the time

Time has come today

Grabbed my coat and grabbed my hat

Made my train in seconds flat
All the time I'm listening to my radio


Around the block, to the corner
You can hear it all night long
On the roof and out on Broadway

When the radio is on
You can rock around the clock
Because you know the beat goes on

They'll be dancing in the streets
Because the radio is on


My whole life long has been one big song
But all my parents ever said was "Turn it down"
Even with my homework blasting out the cool jerk

Living for the latest sound
And every special event, has a particular tune
That's the way that I remember everything I do

My first romance ooh we used to dance to the man with the Blue Suede shoes

From the eastside to the westside

Uptown funk and downtown soul
I go downtown and I'm listening to my radio


Around the block, to the corner
You can hear it all night long
On the roof and out on Broadway

When the radio is on
You can rock around the clock
Because you know the beat goes on

They'll be dancing in the streets
Because the radio is on


Radio! radio

Well you can't sit out, when the air waves howl

It's been that way since the Wolfman growled
Jitterbug, Twist, Watussi too, the swim, the pony and the boogalo
And while the sounds have changed, the radio still rules

Now we moondance down to electric avenue
Breakin, snakin', doing the worm, New York radio makes the world turn


Around the block, to the corner
You can hear it all night long
On the roof and out on Broadway

When the radio is on
You can rock around the clock
Because you know the beat goes on

They'll be dancing in the streets
Because the radio is on


Around the block, to the corner
You can hear it all night long
On the roof and out on Broadway

When the radio is on
You can rock around the clock
Because you know the beat goes on

They'll be dancing in the streets
Because the radio is on
