The radio goes on
I'm half asleep
It's Morning Edition
With Steve Inskeep
On the morning commute
In the pouring rain
I hear the soothing sounds
Of Renee Montagne
When I get to work
I stream you live
Without my NPR
I would not survive
NPR! NPR!
NPR! NPR!
Who? What? When?
Where? Why? How?
NPR, I need you now!
It's time for lunch
But I look at the clock
I gotta hear the news
from Melissa Block.
Sarah Palin's dog
Just shot a moose
The FDA recalls
Tomato juice
The Virgin Mary
On a lampshade
Obama plays hoops
with a White House Aid
I want to eat lunch
but I can't go far
I gotta stay close
to my NPR
NPR! NPR!
NPR! NPR!
Who? What? When?
Where? Why? How?
NPR, I need you now!
I pull into the driveway
And I'm sittin' in the car
I gotta hear this story
on NPR
There's a monkey in Japan
And he serves beer
Forget about dinner
This I gotta hear
Now Robert Siegel
On a software hacker
And the origins of
the firecracker
NPR! NPR!
NPR! NPR!
Who? What? When?
Where? Why? How?
NPR, I need you now!
I need you now!
this is pretty awesome!
