Words and music by dar williams
Perhaps I am a miscreation
No one knows the truth there is no future here
And youre the dj speaks to my insomnia
And laughs at all I have to fear
Laughs at all I have to fear
You always play the madmen poets
Vinyl vision grungy bands
You never know whos still awake
You never know who understands and
Are you out there, can you hear this?
Jimmy olson, johnny memphis,
I was out here listening all the time
And though the static walls surround me
You were out there and you found me
I was out here listening all the time
Last night we drank in parking lots
And why do we drink? I guess we do it cause
And when I turned your station on
You sounded more familiar than that party was
You more familiar than that party
Its the first time I stayed up all night
Its getting light I hear the birds
Im driving home on empty streets
I think I put my shirt on backwards
Are you out there, can you hear this
Jimmy olson , johnny memphis
I was out here listening all the time
And though the static walls surround me
You were out there and you found me
I was out here listening all the time
And whats the future, who will choose it?
Politics of love and music
Underdogs who turn the tables
Indie versus major labels
Theres so much to see through
Like our parents do more drugs than we do
Oh....
Corporate parents, corporate towns
I know every tv set that has them lit
They preach that I should save the world
They pray that I wont do a better job of it
Pray that I wont do a better job
So tonight I turned your station on just so Id be understood
Instead another voice said I was just too late
And just no good....
Calling olson, calling memphis
I am calling, can you hear this?
I was out here listening all the time
And I will write this down
And then I will not be alone again yeah
I was out here listening
Oh yeah I was out here listening
Oh yeah I am out here listening all the time
Perhaps I am a miscreation
No one knows the truth there is no future here
And youre the dj speaks to my insomnia
And laughs at all I have to fear
Laughs at all I have to fear
You always play the madmen poets
Vinyl vision grungy bands
You never know whos still awake
You never know who understands and
Are you out there, can you hear this?
Jimmy olson, johnny memphis,
I was out here listening all the time
And though the static walls surround me
You were out there and you found me
I was out here listening all the time
Last night we drank in parking lots
And why do we drink? I guess we do it cause
And when I turned your station on
You sounded more familiar than that party was
You more familiar than that party
Its the first time I stayed up all night
