Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I tried givin' up, walked through quite enough
Had to call it a day
From an ex who showed up fallin' to grand piano
Fallin' on the edge of the parkway
[Verse 2]
Got no good advice, hotline - call me twice
Said, I went through the wall
Do you have a quote to lend me, or a friend to send me?
But I got no help at all
[Verse 3]
So I loosened my lips and led a little prayer I memorized
Do what I just wished and suddenly to my surprise
[Verse 4]
Oh, DJ, when you're playin' my song
Make me feel bigger than ol' King Kong
At the risk of this comin' out wrong
Feel like making love with the radio on (Radio on), oh
[Verse 5]
Every time you play that jam, grabbed my baby right by her hand
Even if my day was goin' all wrong
Feel like making love with the radio on
[Verse 6]
That's my medicine, light it like Edison
Turn it right up to the sky
You're my absolute affection of pure perfection
My Venetian boat ride
[Verse 7]
Blown out speakers and worn out tweeters and
Still I get the effect, if you got my
Go-to livin', it'll get me in the spirit
Even if I'm a complete wreck
[Verse 8]
Don't you call it a flaw, everybody needs some peace of mind
It should be the law to take a little private time
[Verse 9]
Oh, DJ, when you're playin' my song
Make me feel bigger than ol' King Kong
At the risk of this comin' out wrong
Feel like making love with the radio on (Radio on), oh
Every time I hear that jam, grabbed my baby right by her hand
Even if my day was goin' all wrong
Feel like making love with the radio on
[Verse 10]
I wanna feel like this, so hold me forever
Emotions are real like this and flow like a river
And you are the only one that I need, yeah
[Verse 11]
Oh, DJ, when you're playin' my song
Make me feel bigger than ol' King Kong
At the risk of this comin' out wrong
Feel like making love with the radio on
[Verse 12]
Oh, every time I hear that sound
Engine runnin' and I'm homeward bound
Even if my day was goin' all wrong
Feel like making love with the radio on
(With the radio, with the radio)
(Feel like making love with the radio on)
(With the radio, with the radio)
(Feel like making love with the radio on)
(With the radio, with the radio, with the radio on)
(With the radio, with the radio)
