Warren Zevon
Mohammedâs Radio
[Verse]
Everybody s restless
And they got no place to go
Someone s always trying to tell them
Something they already know
So their anger and resentment flow
Don t it make you want to rock n roll
[Chorus]
All night long
Mohammed s radio
I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful
On the radio
Mohammed s radio
[Verse]
You know the sheriff s got his problems too
And he will surely take them out on you
In walks the village idiot and his face is all aglow
He s been up all night listening to
Mohammed s radio
[Chorus]
Don t it make you want to rock n roll
All night long
Mohammed s radio
I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful
On the radio
Mohammed s radio
[Verse]
Everybody s desperate
Trying to make ends meet
Work all day and still can t pay
The price of gasoline and meat
Alas their lives are incomplete
Don t it make you want to rock n roll
[Chorus]
All night long
Mohammed s radio
I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful
On the radio
Mohammed s radio
[Verse]
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 whispering to his aide de camp
Be watchful for Mohammed s lamp
[Chorus]
Don t it make you want to rock n roll
All night long
Mohammed s radio
I heard somebody singing sweet and soulful
On the radio
Mohammed s radio
Mohammed s radio
