Remedy – The Radio Said Rock 'N' Roll Is Dead lyrics

(Anderson/Meyer)
Growing up it take a lotta time
First you learn the music then you learn the rhyme
Melody is what you need when you're down
Harmony the world goes 'round and 'round

Radio said rock 'n' roll is dead
To my room I panicked and fled
It wrecked my mind and filled me with fright
Elvis, Chuck 'n' Jerry got me through the long, long night

Gotta pull on my jeans and my dancing shoes
I'm going out and sing some rhythm 'n' blues
Rock 'n' roll is the name of the game
And when it takes me over things ain't the same
Lotsa times we played for free
We had a taste we had a need
Twelve bar blues in four bar time
Beautiful words that just fell in rhyme

Radio said rock 'n' roll is dead
They're going insane they must be out of their head
Radio said rock 'n' roll is dead
But I don't care what the radio said

You will hear the banshee sing
The day you lose that shuffle 'n' swing
You will hear the death bell toll
The day you lose that rock 'n' roll

Radio said rock 'n' roll is dead
To my room I panicked and fled
It wrecked my mind and filled me with fright
Elvis, Chuck 'n' Jerry got me through the long, long night

Radio said rock 'n' roll is dead
They're going insane they must be out of their head
Radio said rock 'n' roll is dead
But I don't care, he don't care, what the radio said
