Thomas Dolby - Airwaves (7" Version) lyrics

rate me

Strange how the scale forms

In tiny patterns

On my atenna

and The Five O'Clock Show, hello hello ...

Brooklyn is crawling with famous people

I turn my vehicle beneath the river, west from south

Through the airwaves-

people never read the airwaves

Do we only feed the airwaves

I really should have seen through the airwaves

Electric fences line our new freeway

Here in the half-light, the motorhomes leave

Knee-deep in water under a pylon

How slow my heartbeat

How thin the air I'm breathing in

Through the airwaves -

People never read the airwaves

do we only feed the airwaves

Or stamp them out at street level ?

Airwaves - the dampness of the wind

The airwaves - the tension of the skin

The airwaves

Be in my broadcast when this is over

Give me your shoulder, I need a place

To wait for morning

No it was nothing - some car backfiring -

Please don't ask questions

I itch all over

Let me sleep

Through the airwaves -

People never read the airwaves

Do we only feed the airwaves

Or stamp them out at street level ?

Airwaves - the dampness of the wind

The airwaves - the tension of the skin

The airwaves I really should have seen through ...
