Radio Paradise (mobile)

He wakes up in the morning
Does his teeth, bite to eat, and he's rollin
Never changes a thing
The week ends, the week begins
She thinks, we look at each other
Wonderin what the other is thinking
But we never say a thing
As these crimes between us grow deeper
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
Goes to visit his mommy
She feeds him well his concerns he forgets them
And remembers being small
Playing under the table and dreaming
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
Driving in on this highway
All these cars and upon the sidewalk
People in every direction
No words exchanged, no time to exchange
Oh
And all the little ants are marching
Red and black antennae waving
They all do it the same
They all do it the same...way
Candyman tempting the thoughts of a
Sweet tooth tortured by weight loss
Program cutting the corners
A Loose end, loose end cut cut
On the fence, but not to offend
Cut cut, cut cut
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
Lights down you up and die

Chumbawamba-1984 Nov 06, 2006 - 01:09	I gave it a 1 (no zero available) to help get it off the programme. Ecclectism has (hopefully) no limits by essence. What's next ? The chicken dance ? [ Reply ]
fishy1 Oct 22, 2006 - 09:57	Ugh, I entered the 2 I felt this song deserves. It is marginal. Then, the score I sent caused a change from 5.6 up to 5.7! That is some tricky math. So, I had to revise with a 1 only to hold the line on the song's average . . . [ Reply ]

She hasn't missed them in the last 6-7 years when they've swung by (every summer). For one class, we had a visit from Michael Santucci, an audiologist from Chicago who handles special ear protection for many musicians , including Mr. Matthews and co. My classmate immediately inquired about interning at Santucci's clinic. [ Reply ]

Greenman Sep 08, 2006 - 10:55	Check out a now disbanded band named From Good Homes if you like this type of music. They opened for DMB around 1993 and were so much musically better... [ Reply ]
Zweiblumen Sep 08, 2006 - 10:54	The actual CD track of this leads of with something like 30 seconds of rimshot. The slow buildup is one of my favorite parts of this recording. DMB is the sort of music that I'm a bit embarassed to like. I really do think that a lot of their older stuff was fairly musically interesting. Don't much care for the new. [ Reply ]
ElSupreme Aug 10, 2006 - 05:21	On the whole I am not a big DMB fan, but I do happen to think this is one of his better songs. He does have a few. [ Reply ]

savoyard Jul 26, 2006 - 13:28	Do you have to join a Frat to enjoy this band?? Sorry this brings back bad memories of Frat guys blasting DMB out of the windows of their Frat Houses. There is a reason this band virtually unknown outside the US. [ Reply ]

cattgirl813 Jul 26, 2006 - 13:24	This song always makes me smile. The wordplay, the music - it's a delight inspite of the downbeat tone of the lyrics. Good to hear a live version. [ Reply ]
