Sittin' in my darkened room, got nothing else to do Tune into my radio, but there's nothing coming through Luxemburg has lost the call, Brussels is nowhere Moscow's just a crackle now, I guess they're not on air All my life I've been listening Now I wanna' shout Electricity through space Electricity through space Electricity through space .. saving grace of the human race My speakers need some maintenance, the wires are all messed up
But my operating manual says "Give it back to us" I turn it up to maximum, still my ears don't bleed It can't put out the power with no signal to receive It's a vital source of communication, exploit it to the full Compared with foreign counterparts, I find it rather dull It's not for the minorities, the heads will never sway The only decent radio is in the U.S.A
