  • Here's another song for the radio

    Life isn't fair for the people who care
    Stick your nose in the air and that's how you go far
    So go tell your lovers
    Your fathers
    Your brothers
    Your sisters and mothers
    How lucky they are

    Light speed
    Out of my mind
    I'm hurt but I'll be fine
    Put your fist in the air
    Raise your voice and declare
    Singing we don't care
    (We don't care)
    We don't care
    (We don't care)

    So here's another song for the radio and here's another line from the heart
    So don't pretend you hate us when you sing along
    'Cause we all look the same in the dark

    L.A. temptations or music sensations
    There's great expectations that weigh on our heads
    So here's to the liars who dream and conspire against the admired
    We hope you drop dead

    Light speed
    Out of my mind
    I'm hurt but I'll be fine
    Put your fist on your chest
    Raise your voice in protest
    Singing we don't care
    (We don't care)
    We don't care
    (We don't care)

    So here's another song for the radio and here's another line from the heart
    (Oh)
    (Oh)
    (Oh)
    (Oh)
    So don't pretend you hate us when you sing our songs
    'Cause we all look the same in the dark

    We don't
    We don't care

    We don't
    We don't care

    We don't
    We don't care

    We don't
    We don't care

    Here's one for the radio
    Here's one for the radio

    Here's one for the radio
    (One for the radio)
    Here's one for the radio

    So here's another song for the radio and here's another line from the heart
    So don't pretend you hate us as you sing our songs
    'Cause we all look the same in the dark

    Here's another song for the radio
    (Song for the radio)
    And here's another line from the heart
    (Oh)
    (Oh)
    (Oh)
    (Oh)
    So don't pretend you hate us when you sing along
    'Cause we all look the same in dark

    (For the radio)
    Yeah
    'Cause we all look the same
    (All look the same)
    'Cause we look the same in the dark

    (For the radio)
    Oh
    'Cause we all look the same
    'Cause we look the same in the dark Writer/s: Thomas Michael Fletcher
