Lyrics

Horse wait a minute
did you smell it
it smells like vinyl
hey you on the other siode:

I’m a vinyl junkie I need the smell of old LPs
I’m a vinyl junkie always have my want-list with me

did you ever see this hard limited
gimmick fold-out cover and two hundred copies only
a friend of mine has one in mint condition
but didn’t wanna give it away to my conditions

and he’s so greedy of my rare ten inch box
he overlooked some words written on cover
I can not live without this splattered vinyl edition
I’m quite positiv to find it in not so bad condition

I’m a vinyl junkie I need the search through hundreds of LPs
I’m a vinyl junkie I get my kicks when I found it in that sleeve

oh, there must be one in this whole wide world
who didn’t say: “I’m sorry, but I didn’t have it”
I would sell my mother for a copy of this single
and I can promise you, my eyes will twinkle

I’m a completist in search of v.g. plus rarities
and only in my hands I can imagine promo onlies
but have I finally found a rare item on a rumble
then emptiness I think will be the proper jingle

I’m a vinyl junkie no record store will be passed by me
I’m a vinyl junkie I’m only buying copies who are still sealed

I’m a vinyl junkie I need the smell of old and rare LPs
I’m a vinyl junkie always have my want-list with me

I’m a vinyl junkie I’m only buying records with mind sleeves
I’m a vinyl junkie and I turn up my nose when I see CDs
