lyrics

02 RADIO A.C.T.I.V.E.

THIS IS RADIO A.C.T.I.V.E
TURN YOUR RADIO ON, LONG WAVE 203
THIS IS RADIO A.C.T.I.V.E

I WOKE UP LAST NIGHT, SAW A BURNING LIGHT
THERE WASN’T A SOUND FOR MILES AROUND
THEN THE RADIO CAME ON, PLAYED A GHOSTLY SONG
FROM NIGHT TILL NOON IT WAS THE SAME OLD TUNE

I HEARD A VOICE AND SOME BACKGROUND NOISE
I TRIED TO HEAR, I BROUGHT MY RADIO NEAR

(spoken) THIS IS THE LAST STATION ON EARTH, THIS IS RADIO ACTIVE
CAN ANYBODY HEAR ME?

THIS IS RADIO A.C.T.I.V.E
TURN YOUR RADIO ON, LONG WAVE 203
THIS IS RADIO A.C.T.I.V.E

I RAN FOR THE HILLS, TOOK MY IODINE PILLS
SAW YOUR STATION MAST, HEARD YOUR FINAL BROADCAST
YOU ASKED US TO PRAY FOR THE LAST DEEJAY
THEN THE AIR TURNED BLUE AND I COULDN’T HEAR YOU

THIS IS RADIO A.C.T.I.V.E
TURN YOUR RADIO ON, LONG WAVE 203
THIS IS RADIO A.C.T.I.V.E

I FOUND YOUR STATION DOWN A LAY BY
I BROKE A WINDOW AND CLIMBED INSIDE
I CALLED OUT YOUR NAME
BUT IT WAS ALL IN VAIN
YOU WERE DEAD WITH YOUR HEADPHONES ON
YOU’D BEEN LISTENING TO YOUR FAVOURITE SONG

(spoken) BUT THE MACHINES WERE IN CONTROL
NOW THERE’S NO MUSIC ANYMORE…
