Radios of the world are tuning in tonight,
|
Are you on the dial, are you tuned in right?
|
One of our D.J.'s is missing.
|
Are you listening?
|
Are you listening to me?
|
Can you hear me?
|
Can you hear me clearly?
|
Around the dial.
|
|
I've been around the dial so many times,
|
But you're not there.
|
Somebody tells me that you've been taken off the air.
|
Well, you were my favorite D.J.,
|
Since I can't remember when.
|
You always played the best records,
|
You never followed any trend.
|
F.M., A.M. where are you?
|
You gotta be out there somewhere on the dial.
|
On the dial.
|
|
(Are you ready) We're going 'round the dial,
|
(Are you listening) Around the dial,
|
(Are you tuned in) Around the dial,
|
(Are you searchin') Around the dial.
|
F.M., A.M. where are you?
|
You gotta be out there somewhere on the dial.
|
On the dial.
|
|
Where did you go Mr. D.J.?
|
Did they take you off the air?
|
Was it something that you said to the corporation guys upstairs?
|
It wasn't the pressure,
|
You never sounded down.
|
It couldn't be the ratings,
|
You had the best in town.
|
Somehow I'm gonna find ya, track you down.
|
Gonna keep on searchin',
|
Around and around and 'round and 'round...
|
|
(They're searchin') Around the dial,
|
(They're listenin') Around the dial,
|
(Poor station) The best in town,
|
(Poor D.J.) Who never let us down.
|
While the critics kept on knocking you,
|
You just kept on rocking around the dial.
|
Around the dial.
|
|
I've been searchin' for you on my radio.
|
This time your station really must have gone underground
|
Somebody said you had a minor nervous breakdown.
|
Was it something that you heard,
|
Or something that you saw,
|
That made you lose your mind,
|
Did you lose control.
|
Did you step out of line?
|
If you're there, give us a sign.
|
|
I can't believe that you've been taken off the air.
|
Think I'll sell my radio now that you're not there.
|
You never gave in to fashion,
|
You never followed any trends,
|
All the record bums tried to hack you up,
|
But you were honest to the end.
|
Gonna keep my radio on,
|
'Till I know just what went wrong.
|
The answers out there somewhere on the dial.
|
On the dial.
|
|
Can you hear me (around the dial)
|
Are you listenin' (around the dial)
|
Are you out there (around the dial)
|
Can you hear me?
|
Around the dial.
