When The Radio Is On Lyrics

Radio!

I wake up in the morning

The first sound that I hear

Is that clock radio (RADIO) singing in my ear

I make it to the bathroom to brush my teeth

To that big city big beat

Jump into the shower, bring my box along

'Cause I know all the words to all the songs

DJ stops the music to announce the time

Time has come today

Grabbed my coat and grabbed my hat

Made my train in seconds flat

All the time I'm listening to my radio

Around the block, to the corner

You can hear it all night long

On the roof and out on Broadway

When the radio is on

You can rock around the clock

Because you know the beat goes on

They'll be dancing in the streets

Because the radio is on

My whole life long has been one big song

But all my parents ever said was "Turn it down"

Even with my homework blasting out the cool jerk

Living for the latest sound

And every special event, has a particular tune

That's the way that I remember everything I do

My first romance ooh we used to dance to the man with the Blue Suede shoes

From the eastside to the westside

Uptown funk and downtown soul

I go downtown and I'm listening to my radio

Around the block, to the corner

You can hear it all night long

On the roof and out on Broadway

When the radio is on

You can rock around the clock

Because you know the beat goes on

They'll be dancing in the streets

Because the radio is on

Radio! radio

Well you can't sit out, when the air waves howl

It's been that way since the Wolfman growled

Jitterbug, Twist, Watussi too, the swim, the pony and the boogalo

And while the sounds have changed, the radio still rules

Now we moondance down to electric avenue

Breakin, snakin', doing the worm, New York radio makes the world turn

Around the block, to the corner

You can hear it all night long

On the roof and out on Broadway

When the radio is on

You can rock around the clock

Because you know the beat goes on

They'll be dancing in the streets

Because the radio is on

Around the block, to the corner

You can hear it all night long

On the roof and out on Broadway

When the radio is on

You can rock around the clock

Because you know the beat goes on

They'll be dancing in the streets

Because the radio is on
