Nelly Furtado - On the radio
------------------------------------------

You liked me till' you heard my shit on the radio 
Well I hate to say but pop aint' going solo 
You liked me till' you heard my shit on the radio 
But now I'm just too mainstream for you, oh no 
You liked me till' you seen me on your t.v. 
Well if you're so low below then why you watching 
You say good things come to those who wait 
Well I've been waiting a long time for it 

Chorus: 
I remember the days when 
I was so eager to satisfy you 
And be less then I was just to prove 
I could walk beside you 
Now that I've flown away 
I see you've chosen to stay behind me 
And still you curse the day 
I decided to stay true to myself 

You say your quest is to bring it higher 
Well I never seen change without a fire 
But from your mouth I have seen a lot of burning 
But underneath I think it's a lot of yearning 
Your face, the colours change from green to yellow 
To the point where you can't even say hello 
You tell me you'd kill me if I ever snob you out 
Like that's what you'd expect from me, 
like that's what I'm about 

Chorus 

Bridge: 
It's so much easier to stay down 
there guaranteeing you're cool 
Than to sit up here exposing 
myself trying to break through 
Than to burn in the spotlight (open fire!), turn in the spitfire (open fire!)
Scream without making a sound (open fire!), 
be up here and not look down (open fire!)
because we're all afraid of heights 

Chorus 

Why ya hurt me hurt me hurt me 
hurt me hurt me hurt me so so, 
leave me down down down down low 
leave me down da down 
down da down da down down down...
shit on the radio... shit on the radio... 
shit on the radio... shit on the radio
