about

Written in 1979...before any of us could drive. Mainstream radio hasn't changed much, though there is rather more choice now.

lyrics

Same old boring everyday
Jumped in my car to get away
Highway driving I felt fine
Speeding along I had plenty of time
Thought I’d turn my radio on
But all I got was a disco song
Reached and moved the dial along
But all I got was Jimmy Young

Speeding along with my radio on...

Gave that dial another twist
But all I got was Brahms and Liszt
Thinking this was pretty bad
Capital Radio driving me mad
Turned it on to LBC
Where news comes first but not for me
Switched it to the Long Waveband
Some DJ I can’t understand

Speeding along with my radio on...

Turned that dial a little more
On the air it’s Radio Four
Programmes on the arts and mime
Politics and story time
Thought I’d put the FM on
Police transmission coming on strong
A speeding car APB
Then I sussed that car was me

Speeding along with my radio on...
