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

Alright

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, got 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(thunder)

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

O.K., 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

I've got the world, got the turnpike, got the I've got the, got the power of the AM

Got the, late at night, (?), rock & roll late at night

The factories and the auto signs got the power of modern sounds

Alright

Right, bye bye!
