Lyrics

late at night in front of my radio
I’m playing with short-wave frequencies
voices coming and voices going
in languages I can’t understand
every millimeter’s a new station
from countries so far away
there are no borders just interferences
and melodies I’ve never heard

call signs mixed with crackles
scraps of conversation in the noise
the world is small and constantly on air
and my antenna didn’t miss a thing

listen to the voice of china
or german numbers as a code
the air is full of strange waves
a good choice to pass the time

hertz by hertz a new program
from stations so exotic
the world is small and constantly on air
and my antenna didn’t miss a thing
