Super mean machine

Taking over all the kids you've ever seen

Locked into the screen

Jabbing at the buttons like they're in a dream

Don't want a Mega drive

Just give me spud-u-like

And lots of records that'll make me scream

Give me the radio playing all the songs I know

Don't want no Gameboy just a rock and roll 

Oh a oh give me a radio

Don't want a Gameboy just rock and roll

Oh a oh give me a radio

Don't want a system that ain't got no soul 



Virtual reality taking over grown ups like you've never seen

Locked into the screen

Simulated mass-destruction oh so clean

Don't want a Mega drive

Just give me spud-u-like

And lots of records that'll make me scream

Give me the radio playing all the songs I know

Don't want no Gameboy just a rock and roll 



Oh a oh give me a radio

Don't want a Gameboy just rock and roll

Oh a oh give me a radio

Don't want a system that's not rock and roll

Oh a oh give me a radio

Don't want a Gameboy just rock and roll

Oh a oh give me a radio

Don't want a system that ain't got no soul 



Kids grow up to be

Simulation junkies when the game's for real

Don't want no C.T.V. when they're pushing all the buttons

And the game's for free

Don't give me a Mega drive

Just give me spud-u-like

And lots of music that'll make me scream

No mean machine in my dreams

I need you, radio

I want you, radio

I need you, radio

I want you for the things you do

No more Gameboy just want rock and roll

No more Top Gun just want rock and roll

No more smart bombs just want rock and roll

No more Gameboy just want rock and roll





Oh a oh give me a radio

Don't want a Gameboy just rock and roll

Oh a oh give me a radio

Don't want a system that's not rock and roll

Oh a oh give me a radio

Don't want a Gameboy just rock and roll

Oh a oh give me a radio

Don't want a system that ain't got no soul

Oh a oh give me a radio

Don't want smart bombs just rock and roll

Oh a oh give me a radio

Don't want a system that's not rock and roll
