I was driving through the night
Into an endless tunnel of fog
When it dawned on me something was wrong
I was in a trance, hypnotized

Bored beyond belief, I was listening to the same old song
I know every lick, every word every nuance
I´m on first name terms with the crew
But I´d better get used to this poop du jour
Sure as hell they won´t play anything new

Oh yes, I love you really
Classic Rock Radio
Oh, my dear it´s time for bed
Time for you to go
Everyone is asleep

The pirates took to the water stole the charts
But sadly that didn´t go down well with those upstairs
Who require loyalty, the establishment considered

That the uncontrolled appreciation of music

Was a danger to royalty, the mighty empire roared
As Cash ´n´ Everitt on the high seas
Looked like they´d get blown out of the water
They did of course eventually come ashore
As meek as mice or to be more accurate as lambs to the slaughter

Oh yes, I love you really
I stand to attention
Oh, Fanny, I love you dearly
Something else I should mention?
You sweet thing

Let´s not talk about MTV
I don´t even want to start
I want to take a look at Classic Rock Radio

We´re talking about the state of the art

Mr Grover ´n´ Mr Gillian
You must have made a million
The night that Frank Zappa caught on fire
Could you tell us all about it
Keep it short and use my version
Or everyone out there´ll think I´m a liar
We can speak about bananas for one second

Just because I understand
You have to get them off your chest
But in the meantime while you´re talking
Could you do some more of these here ID´s
And then this station might maintain some interest

Oh yes, I love you dearly

But why do you exist?
Oh yes, I love you really
Is there something that I missed?
