[Verse 1]
Radio free fall
The cat walk to the show
All bets are on for those in the know
Oh no
There's a caterwaul in Hollywood
Who would have ever thought
All planets align with the disco ball

[Chorus]
Who did you know coming up
Who will you know going down

[Verse 2]
America give it a name
Call it a miracle
All bets are on for those on a roll
Oh no
Sold and bought straight San Jo
Who would have ever thought
We'd spoil the sport and be on top

[Chorus]
Who did you know coming up
Who will you know going down
Who's getting sent back down
There's a brand spanking new kid in town

[Bridge]
San Jo' who would've ever thought
Hollywood get yourself sold and bought
Radio

[Verse 3]
Radio video and don't forget the talking show
And never forget that you're good to go
Oh no
It's a cattle call
In fifteen minutes you're a Neanderthal
All planets align with the disco ball

[Chorus]
Who did you know coming up
Who will you know going down
Who's getting sent back down
There's a brand spanking new kid in town

[Outro]
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
