Listen to the sounds of her broken heart |
|
Flowing from the transistor radio |
|
This little device fits the palm of her hand |
|
Built to take anywhere she wants to go |
|
She searches for signal with a swift flick of the dial |
|
Living in an age of technological advances |
|
Is this little simple pleasure that always makes he smile |
|
And now it's made me smile... |
|
Seems like she only gets am turning out these dated songs |
|
But Carly Simon's always been a guilty pleasure |
|
So I start to hum along |
|
And for a second I start to feel ashamed |
|
I remember verses one and two of |
|
"You're so vain" I look around to see if anybody's watching |
|
And then start to laugh from the thought |
|
You could write it off as nostalgia, outdated, kitchy cool novelty |
|
It's not the same |
|
Can't you hear that tone that's pissed off and alone that aims square for |
|
The jugular vein? I really love these moments that are quirky and absurd |
|
As I sit here watching her mouthing all the words |
|
Within the range of radio frequencies |
|
A song is played that's meant for you and me |
|
Listen to the sounds of her broken heart flowing from the transistor radio |
|
Listen to the sounds of the transistor radio |
