Mohammed's Radio

Mohammed's Radio - Warren Zevon

Everybody's restless and they've got no place to go

Someone's always trying to tell them

Something they already know

So their anger and resentment flow

But don't it make you want to rock and roll

All night long

Mohammed's radio

I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful

On the radio

Mohammed's radio

I told Sheriff's got his problems too

He will surely take them out on you

In walked the village idiot and his face was all aglow

He's been up all night listening to Mohammed's radio

Don't it make you want to rock and roll

All night long

Mohammed's radio

I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful

On the radio Mohammed's radio

Everybody's desperate trying to make ends meet

Work all day still can't pay the price of gasoline and meat

Alas their lives are incomplete

Don't it make you want to rock and roll

All night long Mohammed's radio

I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful

On the radio Mohammed's radio

You've been up all night listening for his drum

Hoping that the righteous might just might just might just come

I heard the General whisper to his aide de camp

Be watchful for Mohammed's lamp

Don't it make you want to rock and roll

All night long Mohammed's radio

I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful

On the radio Mohammed's radio
