(12-20)

Cue the ‘Popcorn’ theme

In 1-2-3

It’s CRAGG Live

Late on Saturday night

Drinks and Doritos

Facebook stream on my iPhone

The Roku set up to receive

Interviews, pop culture news

David Lynch clues

A movie quiz on Vincent Price

A gritty groove from Frankie Stein

A new version of the Grinch

Or WLUV tapes, in a pinch

Elvis crooning in his white jumpsuit

Terry DuFoe in the booth

That station in a cornfield

Gives me homesick feels

I sit at the Swindle Shack

Those old cassettes take me back

To Virginia in 1973

Sting-Ray Schwinn, the hoss for me

Whatever genre may appear

They’ve got the vibe

Wired up and spinning jive

Crank the clock back again

I want more show before it ends

Ghosty brings his expertise

With a follow-up by Tiffany

Vinyl vault 

8-tracks by default

Kookshow Baby’s giggles 

Give me good chills

Listen and learn

Be sure of what you heard

Talking Batman or the Bugaloos

Acid trips and the Banana Splits

Davie Allan the ‘King of Fuzz’

A date with H.R. Pufnstuf

I just can’t get enough

Jerry Mathers, Rip Taylor

California to the world

Jo Anne Worley, Tempest Storm

This is what I’m jonesing for

Horror classics on the fringe

B-Movie reels

With spinning wheels

Arch Hall, Jr. and his Wild Guitar

Jamming coast-to-coast

Forgive me if I boast

Hot Rod devils race

Undead freaks rise from the grave

Edited takes and director’s glory

Stay tuned for the inside story

Collector’s trinkets

Artifacts from the set

A Hollywood costume

A rare collection of show tunes

Whatever guest is on the air

I’m listening in my easy chair

Black Lab on the rug

Bob Fosse and ‘The Rich Man’s Frug’

I give my collar a tug

Sitting low in my recliner

With hip tracks filling the speaker

Arthur Brown’s Crazy World

Go-Go Boots on the girls

A groovy group throughout the year

Always something new to hear

Never fear

I’ll drink my beer

While tales tumble through the mic

Of film and stage

And yonder days 

It does not seem so long ago

We huddled around the radio

Now a podcast click comes on demand

Across the land

Devices in hand

But still a few recall again

Jotting notes with a ball-point pen

Disc Jockeys

Jingling car keys

Prize drives and bonus deals

Callers dialing a rotary wheel

In that age the voice was king

Patter between the platters

Was everything

Wolfman Jack in Mexico

Alan Freed in Ohio

The Beatles on the Sullivan show

Cousin Brucie, Murray the K

That craze might have gone away

But when I stream Cult Radio

The cord connects

The beat protects

The tag-team projects

Another broadcast with questions asked

To heroes and heartbreakers

One-hit wonders and moneymakers

Just a click on the remote

Brings it all to into my home

Weekend welcome

Now the show is done

Happy trails

A wagging dog tail

Signals the end

See you soon, my friends
