Regina Spektor - On the Radio lyrics

This is how it works it feels a little worse
Than when we drove our hearse
Right through that screaming crowd
While laughing up a storm
Until we were just bone until it got so warm
That none of us could sleep
And all the Styrofoam began to melt away
We tried to find some worms
To aid in the decay
But none of them were home
Inside their catacomb a million ancient bees
Began to sting our knees
While we were on our knees
Praying that disease
Would leave the ones we love
And never come again

On the radio we heard "November Rain"
That solo's really long
But, it's a pretty song
We listened to it twice
Cause the DJ was asleep

This is how it works
You're young until you're not
You love until you don't
You try until you can't
You laugh until you cry
You cry until you laugh
And everyone must breathe
Until their dying breath

No, this is how it works
You peer inside yourself
You take the things you like
Then try to love the things you took
And then you take that love you made
And stick it into some someone else's heart
Pumping someone else's blood
And walking arm in arm
You hope it don't get harmed
But even if it does
You'll just do it all again

And on the radio you'll hear "November Rain"
That solo's awful long
But, it's a good refrain
You'll listen to it twice
Cause the DJ is asleep

On the radio on the radio
On the radio, uh oh on the radio, uh oh
On the radio, uh oh on the radio
