When I was 14 mother she told me
Put on that happy dress
Cause there in my back yard
A Ferris Wheel rolling
They're shouting until they turn deaf

I still don't think that they thought I was listening
Still haven't heard what they said I was missing

Sold my soul to the radio
Sold my soul to the radio
Sold my soul to the radio
A long, long time ago

I kept all my secrets
Lord knows I need them
My problems are all well fed
I gave all my senses
To a boombox in my head
And never felt crazy again

I still don't think that they thought I was listening
Still haven't heard what they said I was missing

Sold my soul to the radio
Sold my soul to the radio
Sold my soul to the radio
A long long time ago

A long long time ago
I sold my soul to a deep black hole
A long long time ago
I sold myself to the radio

Sold my soul to the radio
Sold my soul to the radio
Sold my soul to the radio
A long long time ago
