Devil’s Radio Lyrics

[Chorus]
Gossip, gossip, gossip, gossip

[Verse 1]
I heard it in the night, words that thoughtless speak
Like vultures swooping down below on the devil's radio
I hear it through the day, airwaves getting filled
With gossip broadcast to and fro on the devil's radio

[Chorus]
Oh yeah, gossip, gossip, oh yeah

[Verse 2]
He's in the clubs and bars and never turns it down
Talking about what he don't know on the devil's radio
He's in your TV set, won't give it a rest
That soul betraying so and so, the devil's radio

[Chorus]
Gossip, gossip, gossip, gossip
Oh yeah, gossip, gossip, oh yeah
Gossip, oh yeah, oh yeah, gossip

[Bridge 1]
It's white and black like industrial waste
Pollution of the highest degree
You wonder why I don't hang out much
I wonder how you can't see

[Verse 3]
He's in the films and songs and on all your magazines
It's everywhere that you may go, the devil's radio

[Chorus]
Oh yeah, gossip, gossip, oh yeah

[Bridge 2]
Runs thick and fast, no one really sees
Quite what bad it can do
As it shapes you into something cold
Like an Eskimo igloo

[Verse 4]
It's all across our lives like a weed it's spread
Until nothing else has space to grow, the devil's radio
Can creep up in the dark, make us hide behind shades
And buzzing like a dynamo, the devil's radio

[Chorus]
Gossip, oh yeah, gossip, oh yeah, gossip
Gossip, gossip, gossip, oh yeah, gossip

[Outro]
I heard you on Satan's wireless, gossip, oh yeah
You know the devil's radio, child, gossip
Gossip, gossip, gossip

The song came about because I passed a church in a little country town in England that had a billboard outside it saying ‘Gossip — the Devil’s radio. Don’t be a broadcaster.’ I’ve always kept away from that — though I’ve done my share — because with my past, I’ve tended...
