Tell me what you think about this song?
Sue me if you reckon it's too long
I wanna know how you really feel

Tell me what, you think this is funny?
Spending all my time and my money
Trying to find how you really feel
The radio's perfect pitch makes me nauseous
Oh, the Dimwits are digging a ditch
On my heartbeat radio

Tell me what's the deal with the static?
FM has become automatic
I wanna know, did the DJ drown
In a sea of reverb and compression?
Oh, but wait till you hear the refrain
On my heartbeat radio

My darling, waves can't be replaced
But I will remember you
I'd sell my soul
Payola dole
Still I'm not receiving you

Tell me why you're changing the station?
What comes after heavy rotation?
I wanna know, am I coming through?
I wanna know, what I've done to you?
You're wearing out my favourite song
And everyone else's
Oh, nothing but sad honky tonk
On my heartbeat radio

My darling, waves can't be replaced
But I will remember you
I'd sold my soul
Payola dole
Still I'm not receiving you

We laughed and cried
But don't ask why
My poor heart still beats for you

My darling, waves can't be replaced
But I will remember you
I'd sell my soul
Payola dole
Still I'm not receiving you
