Built in the belly of junk by the river my cabin stands
|
Made from the trash I dug out 'the heap, with my own fair hands
|
Every night, I'm back at the shack and I'm sure no one is there
|
||6/4
I'm putting the aerial up, so I can go out on the air

On the air______
(Intro)
<first 3="" bars="" only="">
(1:16-)
(1:20-)
Every morning I'm out at dawn with the dwarfs and the tramp
For a silent communion lit from above by the sodium lamps
Everyone I meet out on the street acts as if I wasn't there
But they're all going to know who I am 'cos I can go out on the air
(Chorus) (1:51-)
(2:02-)
~~~~~~~
|
Leaving the car down leafy lane
Turning out Tarzan for my Jungle Jane
|
anyone at all, from Captain Zero and
his brand of superhero, standing by a call
|
Oh it's not easy, no no no
|
No, no it's not easy making real friends
(Intro) (2:27-)
(2:46-)
Don't you give me your steak-reared milkboys, milkboys
Half alive on empty white noise, white noise
I got power, I'm proud to be loud; my signal goes out clear,
I want everybody to know that Mozo is here
(Chorus) (3:16-)
(3:27-)
