Going faster miles an hour 
Gonna ride by the Stop-n-Shop 
With the radio on 
I'm in love with the modern world 
I'm in touch I'm a modern girl 
New York City when it's late at night 
I got the radio on 
I'm like a roadrunner yeah 

Said hello to the spirit of ol' 1956 
It was pacing in the woods next to '57 
Well the highway was my only friend 
Cuz I went by so quick 
Suburban trees were out there 
And consequently it smelt like heaven 
So I say roadrunner once roadrunner twice 
I'm in love with the modern world 
So let's go out all night aw 

With the radio on got the FM 
Radio on got the powerg got the magic 
Radio on 50,000 watts of power 
Radio on going faster miles an hour 
Radio on I feel like a roadrunner Yeah 

Can't ya hear it out in Jersey now 
New York City when it's late at night 
I'm on West Side Highway heading
Up to the G.W. Bridge down by the power lines 
I see all the neon and it's cold at night 
I got my radio on 
It's so exciting here with the skyscrapers 
In the dark

I feel in touch I feel alive 
With 50,000 watts of power
