8.) Starts out slow and boring Starts out slow and boring
7.) Has a spectacular ending (featuring Tina Turner and the Ikettes) Has a spectacular ending (featuring the exclamation "Radio Radio!")
6.) You will obey me while I lead you, and eat the garbage that I feed you They say you better listen to the voice of reason
5.) I'm the slime oozing out from your TV set I wanna bite the hand that feeds me
4.) Your mind is totally controlled, it has been stuffed into my mold But they don't give you any choice because they think that it's treason
3.) I make you think that I'm delicious with the stuff that I say And the radio is in the hands of such a lot of fools trying to anesthetize the way that you feel
2.) And you will do as you are told until the rights to you are sold So you had better do as you are told, you better listen to the radio
1.) Well I am the slime from your video, oozing along on your living room floor Wonderful radio, marvelous radio...radio radio!
