Songs They Never Play On The Radio Letra

I hate to say how I told you so, but I told you so
And I'm coming by in the sweetest by and by
To claim the claims I'm owed
Though I know I'm owed
Just about half of nothing at all

Oh, what was that song they played?
And what about the pact we made?
Ah, you know, ah, you should of stayed
The day you went away

The A&R man's head rests on his desk, you know
Since 45s were digitized
His heart's bereft and his left ear's deaf
The songs that they never play
On your radio
You can stream them now for free and save your soul

What was that song they played?
What about the pact we made?
What was that song they played?
The day I went away

They are crashing down the boulevard of broken dreams
Men of my class, we live too fast, and we can't be arsed
And we batten down the hatches
Hear, everywhere I go
Old football against the wall
The tires fall off the Civic hall

Songs they never play on your radio
As the cobwebs fall and
Needle skips a groove
Songs they never play on the radio
As the cobwebs fall
And the Pigman busts a move
Cobwebs fall and
Your needle skips a groove
