Capital Radio lyrics

Yes, it's time for
The Dr. Gobbles show

There's a tower in the heart of London
With a radio station right at the top
They don't make the city beat
They're making the action stop

A long time ago there were pirates
Beaming in waves from the sea
But now all the stations are silent
'Cos they haven't got a government license

Wanna tell your problems
Phone in from your bedsit room
Having trouble with your partner
Let us all in the news

If you wanna hear a record
Get the word from Aiden Day
He picks all the hits to play
To keep you in your place all day

(Capital radio)
In tune with nothing
(Capital radio)
In tune with nothing
(Capital radio)
(Capital radio)
In your place all day

Just a-lazing around all day
(Capital radio)
Ba-ba-ba-bummin' all day
(Capital radio)
Backstreet a-hear us out
(Capital radio)
Grab attention go and go against the town

(Capital radio)
[Incomprehensible]
(Capital radio)
It's such a crime
(Capital radio)
Is it a game
(Capital radio)
We ain't got no rights

(Capital radio)
Slippin' off, slipping off
(Capital radio)
Slippin' off, slipping off
(Capital radio)
Slippin' off, slipping off

Don't touch that dial
Don't touch that dial
Don't touch that dial
Don't touch that dial

Yes, it's time for
The Dr. Gobbles show
