The light beam hold you in space A perfect electrical force Whisper the words through the gauze Transmitting your intimate thoughts Stare at the valves as they glow Turn all the dials so you know Oscillate at your frequency Tune your antenna to me This bad technology It breaks promises These faulty wires and nodes They let us down, they let go Wrap the flux round your heart Sound the alarms when it's dark The lasers will slice down the trees The sine waves pull you to your knees
