Something That Sounds Like a Song

Radio plays No. 1 hit But is there really Anything to it Melody flows On repeat Underneath Generic beat Soaring up Crashing down Missing meaning It's only sound Don't listen hard, and don't listen long? To something that sounds like a song The production Is delicious Only a little Repetitious Is the rift Stuck in your head Is it important What was that he said? People listen all day long To something that sounds like a song Pause for a moment To take it apart Peel back the pieces Is there a heart? A chorus to praise Wisdom in verse? Will it change things For better or worse? Fighting injustice, righting a wrong? Or just something that sounds like a song? Make a video Cover your traces Distract with images Lots of pretty faces Don't listen hard, and Don't listen long To something that sounds like a song Something that sounds like a song Something that sounds like a song
