Pere Ubu - What I Heard on the Pop Radio Lyrics

Save the emotional garbage
for someone who's gonna pretend
much better than I do.
Gut up, shut up, take it like a man.

A baby voice gangster dream boat
a bearded toff who sings like a girl
they got something they're gonna wanna sell you.
Gut up, shut up, take it like a man.

You got delusions.
You have intentions.
You think that this is real.
Gut up, shut up, take it like a man.

You want real?
No, you don't.
Real is in my eye.
Look!
Gut up, shut up, take it like a man.

You see.
I see.
I see you.
This eye
Gut up, shut up, take it like a man.

Save the emotional garbage for someone
who's gonna pretend better than I do.
Almost anyone will.
Gut up, shut up, take it like a man.
