Make it shorter for the radio
The song rides, the parasite
Make it shorter for the radio (she said)
Keep it clean don't be political
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Look in her eyes, she'll give you cataracts (she said)
Sell her your sole you get your money back
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Just keep on walking on the side of the road that you started on
Questioning water, under the bridge is freezing
And eyeballs, facing the wind are bleeding
And why I'm, instinctively violent..
Wooh, wooh, wooh, wooh, wooh
The song rides, the parasite
Maybe we really shouldn't let her go (He said)
Change your mind don't be so cynical
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
What were you thinking being ethical? (My friend)
Just close your eyes, get economical
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Were crossing over to the side of the road that the party's on
Questioning water, under the bridge is freezing
And eyeballs facing the wind are bleeding
And why I'm, instinctively violent
Wooh Wooh (x3)
Were crossing over to the side of the road that the party's on
Questioning water, under the bridge is freezing
And eyeballs facing the wind are bleeding
And why I'm, instinctively violent
Why I'm sadistically silent
Wooh Wooh (x4)
The song rides, the parasite
Make it shorter for the radio (she said)
Keep it clean don't be political
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Look in her eyes, she'll give you cataracts (she said)
Sell her your sole you get your money back
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Just keep on walking on the side of the road that you started on
Questioning water, under the bridge is freezing
And eyeballs, facing the wind are bleeding
And why I'm, instinctively violent..
Wooh, wooh, wooh, wooh, wooh
The song rides, the parasite
Maybe we really shouldn't let her go (He said)

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh
Were crossing over to the side of the road that the party's on

And eyeballs facing the wind are bleeding
And why I'm, instinctively violent
Wooh Wooh (x3)
Were crossing over to the side of the road that the party's on
Questioning water, under the bridge is freezing
And eyeballs facing the wind are bleeding
And why I'm, instinctively violent
Why I'm sadistically silent
Wooh Wooh (x4)

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

DMBT asked for complete autonomy w/r/t the composition of the Yes! album. (Or so goes the story on domebadthings.com/history.html) This song is about the BS record companies tell bands they should do in order to make their music radio-friendly, and the struggle against that BS.
