Radio Programmer Lyrics by Don McGlashan

Marvellous Year

2009

Radio programmer
Types on the keyboard
With two strong fingers
Tapping out the songs
Beautiful assistant
In the little black dress
Brings him round a coffee
Black and strong

And he loves his wife
And he loves his family
And he works a long day
To play his part
For the sake of the songs
For the sake of the industry
Makes it look so easy
But it's so hard

Take for instance this one
By the Seven Sisters
It's gonna be a tough a call
But there might be a way
Sweat on his brow
His fingers blistered
He kneels down by his desk
And he bеgins to pray

"Sweet Father in Heaven
I'm not feeling wеll
Send me down a sign
About this song
Will it make 'em smile?
And tap tap the steering wheel?
I feel so weak
When I should be strong"
But he types in the code

And he feels a weight lifting
And he just knows
That he's done the right thing
He calls his beautiful assistant
In the little black dress
Says "I'm going home home now"
And he begins to sing

And he loves his wife
And he loves his family
And he works a long day
To play his part
For the sake of the songs
For the sake of the industry
Makes it look so easy
But it's so hard
