Portable Radio Songtext
von Daryl Hall & John Oates

Radio
Radio
Turn up the power all night

Now, take your pick of the modulation
Like a kid in a candy store
Now, it′s a hand-carry situation
It's made for lying on the beach
Or dancin′ in the streets

You got your pertinent information
Or you can tune in to hear the scores
Now, there's a power in a million stations
You can't ignore

C′mon and listen to the (radio)
Turn up the power, the power (radio)
Rock it for hours and hours and hours (radio)
Now turn it soft and low (portable radio)
V-v-viva la (portable radio)
Crank up the power (portable radio)
Turn up the power all night


Well I, well I don′t wanna hear no static
And I don't wanna hear no jaw
Now, put them platters on automatic
I cannot get enough
You gotta give me more and more

Play some soul for the congregation
Rock ′n' roll for the kids next door
Charge up your batteries across the nation
Viva la Portable Radio

C′mon and listen to the (radio)
Turn up the power (radio)
Rock it for hours and hours and hours (radio)
Now turn it soft and low (portable radio)
V-v-viva la (portable radio)
Crank up the power (portable radio)
Turn up the power all night

It's X-Static (portable radio)
It′s fully automatic (portable radio)
V-v-v-viva la (portable radio)
Turn up the power all night


Turn it up, turn it up (portable radio)
Play on, play on and on and on and on
And on and on and on (portable radio)
And on and on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on and on
Turn it up (portable radio)
V-v-v-viva la (portable radio)
Crank up the power (portable radio)
Turn up the power all night

Turn it up, turn it up (portable radio)
Portable radio
Portable radio
