This is not my pop song
Playing on the radio
My pop song is still playing
On the air waves of long ago
I can’t hear the melody
And the harmony sounds bad
Well I think whoever bought this single
Well I think that they’ve been had
Well how the hell they dancing and singing
Without losing all their damn breath
I bet they’re damn lip synching
How else they avoiding cardiac death
I try to switch the radio dial
But all the stations are the same
I will just sit here quiet a while
And think who I should blame
This is not my pop song
Maybe it belongs to you
The song structure is all wrong
The rhythm sounds bad too
Maybe I have just lost touch
And start to get a bit old
But this song sucks way too much
If the truth really be told
Well instead of sitting here feeling sad
Looking for some new tunes to hum
I am going to just be really glad
I got a box of old LP’s if I need some
