Deep Purple Mtv Lyrics

Mtv Lyrics

I was driving through the night

Into an endless tunnel of fog

When it dawned on me something was wrong

I was in a trance, hypnotized



Bored beyond belief, I was listening to the same old song

I know every lick, every word every nuance

I'm on first name terms with the crew

But I'd better get used to this poop du jour

Sure as hell they won't play anything new



Oh yes, I love you really

Classic Rock Radio

Oh, my dear it's time for bed

Time for you to go

Everyone is asleep



The pirates took to the water stole the charts

But sadly that didn't go down well with those upstairs

Who require loyalty, the establishment considered

That the uncontrolled appreciation of music



Was a danger to royalty, the mighty empire roared

As Cash 'n' Everitt on the high seas

Looked like they'd get blown out of the water

They did of course eventually come ashore

As meek as mice or to be more accurate as lambs to the slaughter



Oh yes, I love you really

I stand to attention

Oh, Fanny, I love you dearly

Something else I should mention?

You sweet thing



Let's not talk about MTV

I don't even want to start

I want to take a look at Classic Rock Radio

We're talking about the state of the art



Mr Grover 'n' Mr Gillian

You musta made a million

The night that Frank Zappa caught on fire

Could you tell us all about it



Keep it short and use my version

Or everyone out there'll think I'm a liar

We can speak about bananas for one second



Just because I understand

You have to get them off your chest

But in the meantime while you're talking

Could you do some more of these here ID's

And then this station might maintain some interest



Oh yes, I love you dearly

But why do you exist?

Oh yes, I love you really

Is there something that I missed?
