Me and my friend and his girlfriend are swimming
In Telephone Lake where willows are ringing
Out of the water a periscope snake
Says: "Go to the place where the wireless valves break"
Me and my friend and his girlfriend are driving
Through silence and sound, my sister is waving
She found a map full of stations and beams
Where rivers were drawn like electron streams
My friend and his girl hear the Doppler Effect
They both disappear in the Infinite Shoeblack
Me and my sister drive home with the blues
Now we can look for the Radio Shoes
How we can look for the Radio Shoes
(Little red roses fall) they fall from heaven
(Little red roses fall) fall from heaven
(Little red roses fall from heaven)
Me and my friend and his girlfriend are skating
On Telephone Lake, my sister is waiting
At home near the wireless but there is no sound
The periscope snake must have been drowned
We melt through the ice and never come back
We all disappear in the Infinite Shoeblack
Through falling snow we walk home with the blues
Now we can look for the Radio Shoes
How we can look for the Radio Shoes
Now we can look for the Radio Shoes
