glenn tilbrook - once upon a long ago lyrics

[verse 1]
where i lived
once upon a time ago
a bunch of old geezers
used by radio [?]
as is the stare fixed old[?]
with their jolly clip shows
they patronise the soul but they
had to go

[chorus]
the so+called winner is a stooge given cash
it’s an itch you want to scratch but it
leaves a rash
they colour the airwaves with an overload
of sh+t they would never ever listen to
at home
the singer is a [?] of formulaic songs
second+hand, third rate, and wrong
it seems the level playing field has been revoked
and i’d like to find out how the system broke

[verse 3]
maybe old competition prize at stake
a trip to las vegas
a station [?]
[?]
it’s the icing on the cake
a record label pays
now their songs get played
[chorus]
the so+called winner is a stooge given cash
it’s an itch you want to scratch but it
leaves a rash
they colour the airwaves with an overload
of sh+t they would never ever listen to
at home
the singer is a [?] of formulaic songs
second+hand, third rate, and wrong
it seems the level playing field has been revoked
and i’d like to find out how the system broke

[bridge]
something’s got to change because
it’s even worse than it was
it’s hard enough without a nudge and [?] unseen
the whole process should be conducted
more transparently

[verse 4]
here i am
pleading for a chance to show
this new collection of songs that we’ve prepared
using out of date software
gaffer tape and strands of hair
there are some days i despair
but all life is there
[chorus]
the so+called winner is a stooge given cash
it’s an itch you want to scratch but it
leaves a rash
they colour the airwaves with an overload
of sh+t they would never ever listen to
at home
the singer is a [?] of formulaic songs
second+hand, third rate, and wrong
it seems the level playing field has been revoked
and i’d like to find out how the system broke
how the system broke
how the system broke
how the system broke
how the system broke
how the system broke

[outro]
once upon a time ago
once upon a time ago
once upon a time ago
once upon a time ago
once upon a time ago
once upon a time ago
