Hit Song

I've got this piano on my back
it's heavy loud and painted black
it knocks me down it picks me up
it's like a feather like a truck

nearly killed me yesterday
tried every station but I wasn't played
I hate it when it happens this way

I almost had a hit song baby playing on the radio
I almost had a hit but missed and nothing's left to show
so turn off the radio and turn me on

I'm so dejected so alone
don't call I won't pick up the phone
got no gold records in the hall
I'm gonna stare right through the wall

nearly killed me yesterday
tried every station but I wasn't played
I hate it when it happens that way

I almost had a hit song baby playing on the radio
I almost had a hit but missed and nothing's left to show
so turn off the radio till I'm on the radio
turn me on

Here I remain at the gate
one dollar short one minute late
I'm unrequested so I wait

I almost had a hit song baby playing on the radio
I almost had a hit but missed and nothing's left to show
so turn off the radio till I'm on the radio
turn me on.¦
