Heavy Rotation Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh Jackie, you've got a lot to learn
I'm tired of bracing every bridge you burn
Why, oh why?
Look at the lines on my face
Open your arms, embrace me Jackie!

[Verse 2]
Jackie was the brown eyed beauty queen of Everside
When she come to town, them boys all buzz around the hive
If you wanna taste the honey, then you better realize
You'll get stung once or twice

[Chorus]
All her friends they're up on the west side
Do you wanna go?
They've got songs in heavy rotation on the radio
She knows everybody no matter where she goes
She's got friends in heavy rotation on the radio

[Verse 3]
I recall the night she left me standing in the rain
Begging Jackie please tell me there's something I can say
Either roll with the punches, or get out of the way
That's what she said, never knowing, oh I could change
Where I'm going...
[Chorus]
All her friends they're up on the west side
Do you wanna go?
They've got songs in heavy rotation on the radio
She knows everybody no matter where she goes
She's got friends in heavy rotation on the radio!

[Bridge]
You can try to get to know her
Just by reading all the writing on the wall
She's always right around the corner
She's got friends in heavy rotation on the radio!

Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na
Na, na, na, na (x3)

You can try to get to know her
Just by reading all the writing on the wall
She's always right around the corner
All her friends are up on the west side
Do you wanna go?
They've got songs in heavy rotation on the radio!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
