Radio Paradise (mobile)

Unsealed, on a porch a letter sat
Then you said, "I wanna leave it again."
Once I saw her on a beach of weathered sand
And on the sand
I wanna leave it again... yeah
On a weekend... wanna wish it all away, yeah
And they called, and I said that "I want what I said" and then I call out again
And the reason, oughtta leave her calm, I know
I said, "I know what I wear, not the box or the bag."
(''Alternate opening verse:''
''I want to see that...
On a voice that let out said
"Let me see him."
I want to leave it {him} again
Once I saw him on a beach of weathered sand
I don't want to see him
I want to leave it {him} again
I want to leave here, I want to get wasted on the way, yeah
And he called and I said and I know what I said and I called out again
And the reason, I'm gonna' leave her {him} gone, but I know
What I said, "I don't know whether to leave it in the box there or n'the bag.")''
"Ah yeah... Can you see them out on the porch?
Yeah, but they don't wave
But I see them... 'round different ways, yeah
And I know, and I know... I don't want to stay
Ah yeah, yeah
Can you see them
Out on the porch?
Yeah, but they don't wave
I see them... 'round the front way, yeah
And I know, and I know
I don't want to stay
(Make me cry)
Ooooh I see
Ooh, I dont know there's something else
I want to drum it all away
Oh, I said, "I--I don't, I don't know whether I was the box or the bag."
Ah yeah
Can you see them
Out on the porch?
Yeah, but they don't wave
But, I see them round the front way, yeah
And I know, and I know...{that I don't...}
I don't want to stay, alone {at all}
I don't wanna stay, yeah
I don't wanna stay
I don't wanna stay
I don't
Don't wanna
Ohhhh
Yeah... oooh no no no no no
Ohhhhhhh oh oh oh oh

It's like Eddy's channeling early Michael Stipe. hencini wrote: Epic lyrics... "Brown the runway!!" "Potato waaaaaaaaave......." "Make me fries." "Oh, I don't know why they suntan whales." Love this song. [ Reply ]

PhoenixArtDj Mar 02, 2013 - 11:10	This song is all about Mike McC and his wicked guitar skills. That's why a mumbling Ed is insignificant; it's sweet music. Check out the many live versions of this song on official bootlegs. Extra tags, singing crowds, and wicked solos. Worth the price of a PJ ticket just to hear this song live. [ Reply ]

Check out Live @ Benaroya Hall or one of the many official live boots from Seattle venues to hear the love of the fans for their homeboys. We saw PJ in Vancouver on the Backspacer tour and Eddie really ragged on Seattle fans. I was kind of surprised. They played Seattle a few nights later and by the accounts I read it was a great show with adoring fans doing their part. The show I saw was great too. They're full value, imo. Maybe Ed's remarks were meant in jest, but it didn't come across that way. [ Reply ]
