I reckon the title is an homage to The Replacements song ‘Left of the Dial’, which also references listening to the radio.
[Verse 1]
The radio is loud and wild
And I'm too drunk to spin the dial
Bathe my bones in alcohol
So I don't have to think at all
[Chorus]
I was born at the bottom
But I never belonged
I'm hardly ever right
But I've never been wrong
[Post-Chorus]
I can't get calm
[Verse 2]
Amplifiers sting my teeth
And batter me with evil things
I take some drugs to fix my brain
They numb my tongue but miss the pain
[Chorus]
I was born at the bottom
But I never belonged
I'm hardly ever right
But I've never been wrong
[Post-Chorus]
I got dust in my lips and a limp in my charm
But got a halo on my heart
