Joe Walsh - The Radio Song Lyrics
I like to listen to music
I like the way that it sounds
On the radio
I like to sit in a silent place
When no one's around
Inside the silence is a melody
Voices singing harmony
I close my eyes and listen carefully
The silence starts to get loud
It's like your favorite station
Playing your favorite song
Just like they do on the radio
Like they do on the radio
Inside the silence is a symphony
The music tells me how it wants to be
I help it write itself down
I hear the way that would sound
It's like your favorite station
Playing your favorite song
Just like they do on the radio
Like they do on the radio
But the radio isn't on --
On the radio

Great song!
underrated song.. probably off his worst overall album but some good gems on there too.
Got any gum is a very underrated album. I still rock to it this very day. ✌👣👣👣
Joe Walsh stated the following to Rolling Stone Magazine:
I decided I would make a song that explains how I write music. Because I got tired of people asking me. And if you read the lyrics, it tells you exactly how I do it: "I like to sit in a silent place when no one's around and listen inside it/Inside the silence is the melody/Voices singing harmony." That's it.
As far as the album title [1987's Got Any Gum?], I was in New York City and I was walking down the street. And this guy was coming toward me and he was obviously homeless and looking for change and stuff. So I reached into my pocket and pulled out a handful of change, and when he got to me I held it out and said, "Here." And he said, "Nah, I don't want any money. You got any gum?" And I thought, "This guy's a genius! That's brilliant!" It was like a Zen riddle and that was the answer [laughs].
Joe is the most talented goofball ever.
