On my alarm clock radio

It's the loudspeaker where I was employed

It's the dead air radio playin'

All these love songs making me paranoid



I can't hear what their playin', playin'

Scream out their windows but I can't hear what their sayin'

In my headphones

It sounds so right, it sounds just like I'm there

In my headphones

I sing out loud and make the bus stop people stare

In my headphones

Their lips all move but the sounds all drowned away

In my headphones

Up on a sound wave

Up on a sound wave



If I want to be a hero someday

I'm going to need a theme song to be playin'

I'm in my own world and my soundtrack's on solo

I'm in my own world and my soundtrack's on phono



I can't hear what their playin', playin'

Scream out their windows but I can’t hear what their sayin'

In my headphones

It sounds so right, it sounds just like I'm there

In my headphones

I sing out loud and make the bus stop people stare

In my headphones

Their lips all move but the sounds all drowned away

In my headphones

Up on a sound wave

Up on a sound wave



I can't hear what their playin', playin'

Scream out their windows but I can't hear what their sayin'

In my headphones

It sounds so right, it sounds just like I'm there

In my headphones

I sing out loud and make the bus stop people stare

In my headphones

Their lips all move but the sounds all drowned away

In my headphones

Up on a sound wave

Up on a sound wave



In my headphones
