Radio Paradise (mobile)

Fake Tales of San Francisco echo through the room
More point to a wedding disco without a bride or groom
There's a super cool band, yeah, with their trilbys and their glasses of white wine
And all the weekend rockstars in the toilets practicing their lines
I don't want to hear you (kick me out, kick me out)
I don't want to hear you, no (kick me out, kick me out)
I don't want to hear you (kick me out, kick me out)
I don't want to hear you, I don't want to hear you
Fake Tales of San Francisco echo through the air
And there's a few bored faces in the back, all wishing they weren't there
And as the microphone squeaks a young girl's telephone beeps
Yeah, she's dashing for the exit, oh, she's running to the streets outside
"Oh, you've saved me", she screams down the line
"The band were fucking wank and I'm not having a nice time"
I don't want to hear you (kick me out, kick me out)
I don't want to hear you, no (kick me out, kick me out)
Yeah, but his bird said it's amazing, though, so all that's left
Is the proof that love's not only blind but deaf
He talks of San Francisco, he's from Hunter's Bar
I don't quite know the distance but I'm sure that's far
Yeah, I'm sure it's pretty far
And, yeah, I'd love to tell you all my problem
You're not from New York City, you're from Rotherham
So get off the bandwagon and put down the handbook
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Get off the bandwagon, put down the handbook
Get off the bandwagon, put down the handbook
Get off the bandwagon, put down the handbook
Get off the bandwagon, put down the handbook, yeah

ick Aug 29, 2012 - 12:40	If the wiki about these guys is to be believed, the lead singer/guitarist didn't start playing the guitar until 2001 and by 2006 they were famous and had a record out. I hate that kid. [ Reply ]

Ag3nt0rang3 Sep 16, 2011 - 06:20	Like jewellry, this at first listen seems too big, gaudy and tawdry to be real. After a few more listens, it's clearly too big, gaudy and tawdry to be fake. [ Reply ]

S-curvy Feb 07, 2011 - 20:07	Ah I like this. It's edgier and harder than yer garden variety RP fare. It's not that I'm all about harder/edgier, but every now and then it's good when Bill cranks up the juice to "11.". The only problem is that this strikes me as a bit poppish in that "alternative rock" way. [ Reply ]
