Stiff Little Fingers - You Can't Say Crap On The Radio lyrics

(Fingers/Ogilvie)

Oh flip oh gosh oh golly gee

We really shocked the local rock disc jock

Oh crumbs oh boy oh sugar me

The poor bloke nearly went right off his block

We only told him what we did and didn't like

And then we used that word and he jumped on the mike

You can't say that on the radio

You can't say that on the radio

yes we all do it but you can't refer to it

You can't say that on the radio

Oh flip oh gosh oh golly gee

We said the word and got our knuckles rapped

But if he didn't want to know

Why did he ask our views on all that crap?

Oh now we've done it and we've really got it wrong

Not even Uncle John will get to play this song

Cos you can't say crap on the radio

You can't say crap on the radio

We all do it but you can't refer to it

You can't say crap on the radio

Of course we teach freedom of speech

But say as we say and not what we preach

We know your sort you little guttersnipe

Don't give us none of that shit

Oh flip oh gosh oh golly gee

But now we know how we touched a sore spot

Oh crumbs oh boy oh sugar me

It's plain to see what got him bothered and hot

We thought that it was just something that you said

But then we realised it was all he played

Cos he can play crap on the radio

You can play crap on the radio

Be careful what you say

And you can play shite all day

You can play crap on the radio

Crapital radio
