Lyrics
Songs they never play on the radio
As the cobwebs fall on the old shipping wrecker
The needle skips a groove
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've stayed
The day you went away
The A&R man's head rests on his desk, you know
Since 45s were digitised, 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
