I called this number three times already today But I, I got scared, I put It back in place, I put my phone back in place. I still don't know if I should have called up. Look, just tell me why don't ya if I'm out of place. 'Cause here's your chance to make me feel awkward And wish that I had never even called up this place. I saw you though today walk by with hippie Johnny. I had to call up and say how I want to take his place. So this phone call today conerns hippie Johnny. He's always stoned, he's never straight. I saw you today, you know, walk by with hippie Johnny. Look, I had to call up and say, I want to take his place. See he's stoned, hippie Johnny. Now get this, I'm straight and I want to take his place. Now look, I like him too, I like hippie Johnny. But I'm straight and I want to take his place. I said, I'm straight I said, I'm straight I'm proud to say Well I'm straight and I want to take his place. Now I've watched you walk around here. I've watched you meet these boyfriends, I know, and you tell me how they're deep. Look but, if these guys, if they're really so great, tell me, why can't they at least take this place and take it straight? Why always stoned, like hippie Johnny is? I'm straight and I want to take his place. Oh I'm certainly not stoned, like hippie Johnny is. I'm straight and I want to take his place. I said, I'm straight I said, I'm straight I'm I'm straight and I want to take his place All right you Modern Lovers what do you say? (I'm straight .... + Informações

How in the world were they making that sound? * They were wild like the USA A mystery band in a New York way Rock and roll, but not like the rest And to me, America at it's best How in the world were they making that sound? Velvet Underground. A spooky tone on a Fender bass Played less notes and left more space Stayed kind of still, looked kinda shy Kinda far away, kinda dignified. How in the world were they making that sound? Velvet Underground. Now you can look at that band and wonder where All that sound was coming from With just 4 people there. Twangy sounds of the cheapest types, Sounds as stark as black and white stripes, Bold and brash, sharp and rude, Like the heats turned off And you're low on food. How in the world were they making that sound? Velvet Underground. Like this... Wild wild parties when they start to unwind A close encounter of the thirdest kind On the bandstand playing, everybody's saying How in the world were they making that sound? Velvet Underground. Well you could look at that band And at first sight Say that certain rules about modern music Wouldn't apply tonight. Twangy sounds of the cheapest kind, Like "Guitar sale $29.99," Bold and brash, stark and still, Like the heats turned off And you can't pay the bill. How in the world were they making that sound? Velvet Underground. Both guitars got the fuzz tone on The drummer's standing upright pounding along A howl, a tone, a feedback whine Biker boys meet the college kind How in the world were .... + Informações

"Lonely Financial Zone" by Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers, from the album Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers (1977). Lyrics: In the lonely financial zone By the sea I have walked under moon and stars. Skyscrapers shone in their dark majesty. In this otherwordly land of ours. I've walked by the buildin's, I've walked by the malls, I've walked by the skyscrapers, lonely and dark. In the lonely financial zone By the sea I have walked under moon and stars. In the lonely financial zone By the sea I have walked on cold winter nights. I've stood in awe, so silently Under the buzzing electric light. Boats in the harbor, gulls on the pier, Ships and trucks and sailors in the bars. In the lonely financial zone By the sea I've often walked under moon and stars.. + Informações

Recorded for Beserkley Records in late 1974, produced by label boss Matthew King Kaufman, and released at the time on a single (Beserkley B-34701) with a B-side by the band Earth Quake. Kaufman stated: "To record "Roadrunner" took the 3 minutes 35 seconds for the performance, about another 30 minutes to dump the background vocals on, and another 90 minutes to mix it". This version was reissued in 1975 on the album Beserkley Chartbusters Vol. 1 (Beserkley JBZ-0044). In the UK, where Richman had received substantial and very positive publicity in the music press, it was released in 1976 as a single (Beserkley BZZ 1), known as Roadrunner (Once), with the Cale-produced Roadrunner (Twice) on the B-side. This single reached number 11 in the UK singles chart in early 1977. - Wikipedia Lyrics: One two three four five six Roadrunner, roadrunner Going faster miles an hour Gonna drive past the Stop 'n' Shop With the radio on I'm in love with the modern world Massachusetts when it's late at night And the neon when it's cold outside I got the radio on Just like the roadrunner Goin around the highway I walked by the Stop n shop Then I drove by the stop n shop I like that much better than walking by the Stop n shop Cause I had the radio on I felt in touch with the modern world I felt in love with the modern world I felt in love with ???
