Lights  come on  from
 the neighbors  woken
up  and the flash  is
 our cue  for the dash
  A/Cto the car to
 the  back porch
 where we laugh  and we
pass  to the left
 and reflect  on
 expected  repetitiveness
 The Dial  didn't slip
 an inch  from that station
 We were floating  in your  room
to  the songs  of classic
jazz flowing all  night
long  As fast  as we're leading
 our lives  it's music
 that still makes us come
 out at night  for good  times
Lighten up  cause
 it's summer  and
 we're just  having fun
 We're too young  to be
  Bmout running and
ducking  the fuzz
 But your room  was a
safer  than a  spacious
 Gplace with the
 clarinet filling
 the entire thing
 The dial  didn't slip  and
  Ginch from that station that
 would play  the hits of
 our grandparents'  time
  Emwhile I flawlessly chime
 in at the hit  of
 the ride  and say
 I'm floating  in your  room
to  the songs  of classic
jazz flowing all  night
long  As fast  as we're leading
 our lives  it's music
 that still makes us come
 out at night  for good  times
 Static  there's
nothing  but static
 programmed  by popular
 demand and then a light
 appeared directly over
 my head  and it illuminated  as
  Agreat as the idea that came
 It was simple  we won't
 listen to commercials  or
  Gthe same ten songs
 over and over and over
 Coz We were floating  in your  room
to  the songs  of classic
jazz flowing all  night long
 I'm flying  from your
 room to  the sun
 with classic jazz  still
 spilling from  my lungs
 We're floating  in your  room
to  the songs  of classic
jazz flowing all  night long
