I hope it's clear that I'm not so much talking about the music itself as the ''selection'' that's available on the radio.
 
==Words==
:In the first part of the hour
:They were playing songs I used to love
:There were Eagles, Clapton, Steely Dan
:There was Sly and the Family Stone
 
:In the second part of the hour
:They were playing songs I'd grown tired of
:There were Byrds and Floyd and John and Paul
:There was Crosby, Stills and Nash
 
:'''Chorus''':
::You see I've lived with the desert that is music today
::And I know how it came out this way
::In the desert, the only stream is called main
::'Cause there ain't no way for anyone to complain
 
:After two days of Boston and Journey
:I thought I might expire
:There was Kansas, Styx and Rolling Stones
:There was Earth and Wind and Fire
:The songs were good and they had withstood
:The test of time, it's said
:But the story that they told of back when music was bold
:Made me sad to think it was dead
 
:'''Chorus''':
::You see I've lived with the desert that is music today
::And I know how it came out this way
::In the desert, they can decide what you hear
::They decide for today and they decide for next year
 
:After nine days, I turned the radio off
:'Cause the morning shows went on too long
:There were ads and fluff and laser sounds
:And the DJ talked over each song
:The DJs are recordings phoned in over a wire
:But they act like they live in your town
:In New York City, machines decide what will sell
:And the humans have to sit down
