Rex Bob Lowenstein Lyrics Artist: Mark Germino Theres a disc jockey in Hartlanberg Who works at W.A.N.T. He puts two or three eggs in him And hes in your car by 6.00 am He lives for his job and he accepts his pay You can call and request ‘Lay Lady Lay Hell play Stanley Jordan, The ‘Dead and Little Feat And hell even play the band from the college down the street And his name is Rex Bob Lowenstein Hes forty-seven, goin on sixteen His request lines open, but hell tell you where to go If youre dumb enough to ask him why he plays Hank Snow Well, he tries to keep his talkin to a minimum Hes a Democrat, hes a Republican Hes an ad man with a great voice, say some But when he spins those records hes neither one Hell talk to the truckers on the interstate strip The housewife and the car dealership And when his second wife left him for a paper millionaire He cried unashamedly right on the air And his name is Rex Bob Lowenstein Hes forty-seven, goin on sixteen His request lines open but he makes no bones About why he plays Madonna after George Jones Now, one day a man in a pinstriped suit Took the owner of the station to a restaurant booth His pitch was simple, “youll increase your sales “If you only play the song list we send in the mail.” He guaranteed a larger audience Less confusion and higher points “But your drive-time jock wont get to do his thing. “Hey hes not half bad, tell me, whats his name?” Well his name is Rex Bob Lowenstein Hes frequently heard, but hes seldom seen His formulas simple and his formats big “I just play anything, you call and tell me what you dig.” Now Rex Bob David Saul Lowenstein Quit his job a week later, but before hed leave He locked and bolted the control room door And played smash or trash till they cuffed him on the floor Well they drug him into court and the judge said, “Rex “Ive got to lock you up, for what Im not sure yet. “But your boss here says he thinks youre wrapped too tight. “But, by the way thanks for playing ‘Moon River last night” And his name is Rex Bob Lowenstein Hes a flaming bell inside a tambourine He could play it all if he was just set free Just to find what the people WANT Just to find what the people WANT Just to find what the people WANT
