Radioman

Thought I heard you in the static

Calling out my name

In the waves and wires

Of the fuzzy astral plane

At first I couldn't see you

Then I closed my eyes —  

Rolled the dial, turned you up

Tuned in

Radioman right on time

Radioman leave the world behind

Searching every station

For a single play rotation

Calling in

Your current rising

Way up in the attic

Your signal growing strong

Glowing by the Fireside,

Familiar old theme songs

Johnny Dollar solved the matter

Pearl was all aflame —

Rolled the dial, turned you up

Tuned in

Radioman right on time

Radioman leave the world behind

High up in your tower

Together for an hour

Calling in

Your current rising

Your frequency is cracking

Transmitter blows a fuse

In the waves and wires,

Your Word is shining through

Dead air resurrected

Petey's breaking chains —

New believers with receivers

Tune in

Radioman right on time

Radioman leave the world behind

Blurring constellations

Closer to salvation

Calling in

Your current rising
