Jammed

this is from 1984 during the cold war 5/3/1984

Yes, they're really out there

far across the water

tuned in to short wave band

They strain their ears to listen

because

the sound is in a jam

They stay up late at night 

to hear everything they can

moving to and taping all the sounds

their people ban

In between interference

they hear a piano play

a lone guitar lick 

slowly fades away.....

They hunger for a piece of the beat

they listen to 

A universal language so well-known

Searching all the while

on a radio dial

for a piece of the rock

to call their own

They have tape rolling

it's going underground

they're going keep it going...this foreign sound

They're going to have a party

when they get the chance

gonna play it in cognito

and gonna dance
