(A Steve Bryant parody based on the song “Old Time Rock and Roll,” original recording by Bob Seger)

They put the good formats on the shelf,
I’m so upset I could mess myself.
Smooth jazz is gone, Sunny’s in Español,
I miss that old time radio.

How come they’re still playing disco?
RJ and all the rest are really a bore.
I wish the stations would just show them the door,
I miss that old time radio.

Still miss that old time radio,
Before the corporations made it a hole.
I reminisce about the days of old,
With that old time radio.

Don’t want to hear them play a mambo,
Or rhythmic AC, or watered down soul.
All the oldies stations really, really blow,
I miss that old time radio.

Still miss that old time radio,
Before the corporations made it a hole.
I reminisce about the days of old,
With that old time radio.

Call me a relic; tell me I’m a fool,
I took communications way back in school.
Today’s radio is out of control,
I miss that old time radio.

Still miss that old time radio,
Before the corporations made it a hole.
I reminisce about the days of old,
With that old time radio.
