The title of this song “Radio #2” references their earlier song “The Radio Still Sucks” from the “Let it Burn” split EP with Useless ID. Both songs reflect the band’s stance on the maddening exclusivity of radio stations.
Meet me at midnight, the broadcast tower
High above the hollywood sign
You bring your guitar and I'll bring my radio, radio
Everyone look up for miles around
To witness this beautiful sight
We'll set bonfires, pretend it's the Fourth of July
This is the starting of a brand new revolution
Bite the hand that feeds
Stand up and fight against the messages that they're sending
Stop their frequency
You're always talking, it's neverending
It's about time that we turned off the radio
Call the request lines and tell them that it's over
You're always playing all of the same songs
Over and over again
It's about time that we all turned off the radio
We'll listen to b-sides and sing along
To anthems of the years gone by
Integrity and honesty will prevail tonight
When it's all over, one question still remains
Why do so many bands never make it to the radio?
This is the starting of a brand new revolution
Bite the hand that feeds
Stand up and fight against the messages that they're sending
Stop their frequency
You're always talking, it's neverending
It's about time that we turned off the radio
Call the request lines and tell them that it's over
You're always playing all of the same songs
Over and over again
It's about time that we all turned off the radio
Look outside your FM dial they're preaching lies in 4/4 time
Our generation without a voice is stripped of pride
You're always talking, it's neverending
It's about time that we turned off the radio
Call the request lines and tell them that it's over
You're always playing all of the same songs
Over and over again
It's about time that we all turned off the radio
You're always talking
It's about time that we all turned off the radio
You're always playing all of the same songs
It's about time that we all turned off the radio
