lyrics
Old Scratch Radio Variety Show
They couldn’t see the airwaves, they couldn’t hear the din,
they couldn’t turn the dials, but they were tuning in
It came in loud and clear since before they were on their feet
They couldn’t make out no music, but they all danced to the beat
Of the Old Scratch Radio Variety Show
The incomparable prince of the airwaves told them just what they wanted to hear
Caught up in the stirring movements of flattery and fear
The murder it came so natural, the deceits and the lusts in their heads
All swept away by terrors when their radios went dead
Didn’t need to seek no crossroads to sign up for those dulcet lies
No plugs or cords or boxes, but the receiver behind their eyes
Fanatical fans of the greatest program playing now both day and night
Now everyone is listening to the Old Scratch Radio Variety Show
That old town in crumbling down, sat desolate for years
The stones and bones and burnt out homes where they danced and sang and cheered
The music had seemed so real, the words had seemed to right
So watch how you waltz, or jig, or reel, you at home tuning in tonight
