Remote Control Lyrics by Mark Edgar Stuart

Blues for Lou

2013

[Verse 1]
I heard a song in my car, made me feel like a child
Turned it up real loud, to the top of the dial
With all of my lungs, I sang all the words
I was thinking of you, in my favourite verse
I remember the day, it was always me
On the arm of your chair, we would watch TV
Never knowing the score, I was five years old
I was happy to be your remote control

[Verse 2]
That was way before this technical age
Rabbit ears and tin foil's all we needed to play
Always looking at you, I was on command
You would give me a cue and I would always land
On my feet I could fly across the carpeted plain
Change the channel for you, I was back again
Never asked what for, I did what I was told
I was your right hand, and your remote control
Your remote control

[Verse 3]
I was always in tune with every show you liked
Every Sunday with you was always black and white
When the credits would roll I knew what to do
If the static was on I'd kick the side of the tube
Mom would pop us some corn, we'd make it a meal
I was in your arms and I was always thrilled
Just to be with there you and that big bowl
I was happy to be your remote control

[Verse 4]
Don't go away, I'll be right back
The turn of a phrase was the news in a flash
I would say it to you and make you laugh
You thought it was cute, but I was growing up fast
Forward the reel, I'm driving home
That same old chair is now an empty throne
The picture is sad, the volume is low
I wish I could be your remote control
Your remote control
