Lyrics
Find another songOne-two-three-four-five-six!
Roadrunner, roadrunner, going faster miles an hour.
Gonna drive past the Stop 'n' Shop with the radio on...
I'm in love with Massachusetts,
And the neon when it's cold outside,
And the highway when it's late at night.
Got the radio on...
I'm like the roadrunner.
All right...
I'm in love with modern moonlight -- 128 when it's dark outside.
I'm in love with Massachusetts, I'm in love with the radio on.
It helps me from being alone late at night,
It helps me from being lonely late at night.
I don't feel so bad now in the car,
Don't feel so alone with the radio on.
Like the roadrunner...
That's right!
Said welcome to the spirit of 1956,
Patient in the bushes next to '57.
The highway is your girlfriend as you go by quick,
Suburban trees, suburban speed, and it smells like heaven.
And I say roadrunner once, roadrunner twice...
I'm in love with rock & roll and I'll be out all night.
Roadrunner... that's right.
Well, now...
Roadrunner, roadrunner! -- going faster miles an hour.
Gonna drive to the Stop 'n' Shop with the radio on at night...
And me in love with modern moonlight,
Me in love with modern rock & roll,
Modern girls and modern rock & roll.
Don't feel so alone, got the radio on...
Like the roadrunner...
Okay, now you sing Modern Lovers!
(Radio On!) I got the AM...
(Radio On!) Got the car, got the AM...
(Radio On!) Got the AM sound, got the --
(Radio On!) Got the rockin' modern neon sound...
(Radio On!) I got the car from Massachusetts, got the --
(Radio On!) I got the power of Massachusetts when it's late at night,
(Radio On!) I got the modern sounds of modern Massachusetts.
(Radio On!) I've got the world, got the turnpike, got the,
(Radio on!) I've got the, got the power of the AM, got the,
(Radio on!) Late at night, (?), rock & roll late at night.
(Radio on!) The factories and the auto signs, I got the power of modern sounds.
(Radio on!) All right..
(Radio on!)
All right... bye-bye!
