The Perfect Cut (48 Hours)

Just when you thought it was safe to turn on your radio
Jam the box
(Jam the box, jam the box…)
Jam the hell out of them, Joe
Never say that, never say that on-air
You start, you start, everything out of the woodwork
Give nobody jam, and the special effects are just amazing
Jam the box
(Jam the box, jam the box…)
Can’t tell who’s doing what, so damn much noise
A better transition in half the time
The jingle never gets in the way of the flow (All hit music)
There’s no way there going to keep jammers out of here
Moribund Music, 1978
I still say Dick Vaughn is a prostitute
(Okay, that’s enough noise)
He said Dick Vaughn was a prostitute (Jesus Christ)
I said Dick Vaughn (Stop all that noise)
Number one, if you would like to understand the words to this music,
what you have to do is put on a pair of headphones, turn the volume at a very
low level, and you can hear the words very clearly.
(Really?) You can’t hear
them through the speakers, it’s, uh, you have to, you have to use headphones
On the other side of this record
On the other side of this record
On the other side of this record
Another perfect cut
This is the Weatherman, that’s and it sounds like crap doesn’t it?
And now, 200 cuts later, another cut
Been goin' at it for about half an hour now
Perfect cut
Let’s see who’s going to clean this up (Cut)
(Remember…)
Now’s the time
Now’s the time, you’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of money
Now’s the time, you’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of money
(Remember…)
Now’s the time, you’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of money
What a--
Now’s the time, you’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of money
What a--
Now’s the time, you’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of money
What a--
Now’s the time, you’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of money
What a switch
Now’s the time, you’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of money
What a switch
Now’s the time, you’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of money
What a switch
Now’s the time, you’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of money
What a switch
Now’s the time, you’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of money
What a-- what a--
Now’s the time, now’s the time, you’ve got time
You’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of money
What a time
You’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of money
What a switch
Now’s the time, you’ve got 48 hours to save a lot of time
What a switch
Now’s the time, now’s the time
What a switch, what a switch, what a switch
Remember, nothin' happens until someone buys somethin'
Nothin' happens until someone buys somethin'
Now, you might be telling yourself, the project sounds great
(What can I say, it’s just beautiful!)
The project in its packaged form is available for your use immediately,
with your own chosen title for the album, as well as the entire inside cover
surface for your use
Take two high-quality stereo LPs, put them in a full color jacket,
add a beautiful sexy gal on front, and candid photos of the KQ jocks inside
(We don’t need words like hard-hitting) (Power, explosive!)
And you’ve got a bombshell
(Perfect cut)

Moribund music of the 70s
I’m gonna go reproduce, stand by
Is that Pink Floyd?
That’s Nickelback,
That was really good
Yeah, wasn’t it?
Yes
Um, what about the record?
Ah, they’ll get it
