Get Back to Radio Lyrics

Like an ember
Glowing in the dark
I have almost grown cold
Frozen like a soldier
Standing by the flagpole
Leg player they all said was too old
I have been tempted to hand in my key

But I am never alone
I feel you are with me
I will not be a packet of crap on MTV
I am a man
I will not be a number
Get back to radio
Get back to radio

Now I am a flame
I will be a fire again
Carolyn Ann, give me your hand
Like a volcano

Gettin' ready to blow
The new generation waits by its radio
God bless Bob Geldof
Get back to radio
Get back to radio
Get back

All you want was a chance

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I have a feeling this appeared as the B-side to Sunset Strip......

Shame you can't get some of these songs by normal means.
