Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Radio Waves Lyrics






From the transmitter
To the receiver
Across the ether
Out of your speaker

Radio waves have life
Radio waves have life
Machines are living too
Working for me and you

From the transmitter
To the receiver
Across the ether
Out of your speaker
To the Baltic Fleet
And Atlantic Fleet
Faster than the breeze
Over stormy seas

Radio waves have life
Radio waves have life
Machines are living too
Working for me and you

Radio waves have life
Radio waves have life
Machines are living too
Working for me and you

Through America
To Albania
Over Reagan's head
Under Moscow's bed
To the Warsaw Pact
And the NATO Pact
Down this cul-de-sac
Never turning back

Radio waves have life
Radio waves have life
Machines are living too
Working for me and you

    R.... T....

    From the transmitter
    To the receiver
    Across the ether
    Out of your speaker

    R.... T....

    Cool as ice and with a deep sense of mystery about it. Especially when heard for the first time in 1983 as a teen in a relatively isolated town, from one of those tapes someone recorded of KROQ when visiting LA.

    R.... T....

    @0000 0000 As a OMD fan since the early 80s, it's interesting to me how close these lyrics are to Downtown Science's "Radioactive" from 1991. It's obvious Boscoe and Sam were fans of Kraftwerk, but I wonder if they also liked OMD! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNuXRr77jhA
