Pirate Radio |
| Well, those electric sheep to the valley they keep walkin |
| On the radio waves selling tennis shoes and beer |
| It induces sleep when that DJ starts his squawkin' |
| I’m lookin' for one song to save me on this midnight clear |
| So how far do we have to go to hear that Pirate Radio? |
| One song that could steal our hearts |
| Before they turn into silver and gold |
| Well I’m drivin' my car real slow and my baby wants to know |
| When we gonna hear our song on that Pirate Radio? |
| One star in the sky so I named it Ottis Redding |
| Or maybe Marvin Gaye lookin' for his Tammi Turell |
| There ain’t no mountain high enough to stop this wedding |
| Rollin' out of Memphis to Detroit I can hear those bells |
| So how far do we have to go to hear that Pirate Radio? |
| One song that could steal our hearts |
| Before they turn into silver and gold |
| Well I’m drivin' my car real slow and my baby wants to know |
| When we gonna hear our song on that Pirate Radio? |
| Well, we’ve been drivin' all night, ever since we were teenagers |
| Up to that border town where the outlaw station air waves |
| Where the DJ’s outta sight and his heart is so courageous |
| And he loves every song that he’s puttin' on for the free and brave |
| So how far do we have to go to hear that Pirate Radio? |
| One song that could steal our hearts |
| Before they turn into silver and gold |
| Well I’m drivin' my car real slow and my baby wants to know |
| When we gonna hear our song on that Pirate Radio? |
