The Modern Lovers version - lyrics

one two three four five six
Roadrunner, roadrunner
Going faster miles an hour
Gonna drive past the Stop 'n' Shop
With the radio on

I'm in love with Massachusetts
And the neon when it's cold outside
And the highway when it's late at night
Got the radio on
I'm like the roadrunner

Alright
I'm in love with modern moonlight
128 when it's dark outside
I'm in love with Massachusetts
I'm in love with the radio on
It helps me from being alone late at night
It helps me from being lonely late at night
I don't feel so bad now in the car
Don't feel so alone, got the radio on
Like the roadrunner
That's right

Said welcome to the spirit of 1956
Patient in the bushes next to '57
The highway is your girlfriend as you go by quick
Suburban trees, suburban speed
And it smells like heaven(thunder)
And I say roadrunner once
Roadrunner twice
I'm in love with rock & roll and I'll be out all night
Roadrunner
That's right

Well now
Roadrunner, roadrunner
Going faster miles an hour
Gonna drive to the Stop 'n' Shop
With the radio on at night
And me in love with modern moonlight
Me in love with modern rock & roll
Modern girls and modern rock & roll
Don't feel so alone, got the radio on
Like the roadrunner
O.K., now you sing Modern Lovers

(Radio On!)
I got the AM

Got the car, got the AM

Roadrunner (live) version - lyrics

one two three four five six
Roadrunner, roadrunner
Going faster miles an hour
Gonna drive past the Stop 'n' Shop
On a cold winter night

feel in touch with the modern world
and I feel so lonely in the cold night
And I feel so lonley when it's late at night
Have the radio on
and feel like the roadrunner

Now I'm in love with my own lonliness
it doesn't bother me to feel so alone
at least I'm not staying alone at home
I'm out exploring the modern world
By the pine trees and the Howard Johnsons
On route 128 when it's late at night
We're heading from the north shore to the south shore
Well I see route 3 in my sight and
I'm the roadrunner

well

and I say hello to the spirit of 1956
Patient in the bushes next to '57
The highway is my only girlfriend now as I drive by so quick
Suburban trees
And so it smells like heaven
And I say roadrunner once
Roadrunner twice
I'm in love with this feeling now and I'll be out all night
I'm a Roadrunner

got the
(Radio On!)
I got the AM
(Radio On!)
I Got the AM, got the power
(Radio On!)
and I feel in touch with the world
(Radio On!)
as I drive by in the dark
(Radio On!)
let's go down route 128

now here we are by the industrial park
when it's late after dark

well now
it's 20 degrees outside
it's cold
put my head outside the window, roll it down
my hand's cold already

well
I can see Boston now
I can see the Prudential tower
with the little red lights blinking on in the dark
I'm by Quinzy [???] now
I can see ??? island
I can see
whole Boston harbour from where I am
out on the rocks by ???
in the night

and I'm in love
with the land where I grew up
well I'm in love
well you might say I feel lonely
But I wouldn't say I feel lonely
I would say that I feel alive
all alone
cause I like this feeling
of roaming around in the dark
and even though I'm alone out there
I don't mind
cause I'm in love with the world

and I'm hypnotized
get back in the car

and the rhythm of the engine
hypnotized

I've been driving for 45 minutes
I've been driving for 2 hours
I've been driving for two and a half hours
but I'm hypnotized

Now [???] here we are in western Massachusetts now
on interstate 90

the mass pike in other words [???]

heading out to Amhearst [??] and South Greensfield

Well the college out there just rises in the middle of nothing
you've just got fields of snow and all of a sudden there's these modern buildings
right in the middle of nothing
under the stars

well
Roadrunner, roadrunner
Going faster miles an hour
Gonna drive by some Stop 'n' Shop
with the radio on for company
to feel in touch with the modern world
in Massachusetts when it's late at night
I love the neon when it's cold outside
but I don't feel so alone because I feel
like the roadrunner

now will you help me man

(Radio On!)
I got the AM
(Radio On!)
I Got the power, I got the magic
(Radio On!)
I'm in love, I'm in love
(Radio On!)
I'm in rockin modern love
(Radio On!)
I'm in love with the world
(Radio On!)
I'm alone but I'm in love
(Radio On!)
I'm in love with this feelin
(Radio On!)
when it's late a night
(Radio On!)
I'm in love with Massachusetts
(Radio On!)
when it's cold outside
(Radio On!)
believe me now, believe me now

bye bye!

I'm in love with Massachusetts

It helps me from being lonely late at night
I don't feel so bad now in the car
Don't feel so alone, got the radio on
Like the roadrunner
That's right

Said welcome to the spirit of 1956
Patient in the bushes next to '57
The highway is your girlfriend as you go by quick
Suburban trees, suburban speed
And it smells like heaven(thunder)

I'm in love with rock & roll and I'll be out all night
Roadrunner

Got the, late at night, (?), rock & roll late at night
The factories and the auto signs got the power of modern sounds
Alright

Got the car, got the AM
