Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Baby, your mind is a radio
Got a receiver inside my head
Baby, I'm tuned to your wavelength
Let me tell you what it says
(Hey, now)
[Chorus]
Transmitter
Oh, picking up something good
Hey, radio head
The sound of a brand-new world (Woo)
[Instrumental]
(Hey, now)
[Verse 2]
Look at my fingers, they vibrate
From their tip down down to my toes
Now I'm receiving your signal
We're gonna leave the land of noise (Ah-ooh)
[Chorus]
Transmitter
Oh, picking up something good
Hey, radio head
The sound of a brand-new world
[Instrumental]
Radio head
The sound of a brand-new world
[Bridge]
Now, you and I have no secrets
Now, baby, let me read your mind
I hear everything you're thinking
You can't tell me what you find (Uh-huh)
[Chorus]
Transmitter
Oh, picking up something good
Hey, radio head
The sound of a brand-new world
Transmitter
I'm picking up something good
Hey, radio head
The sound of a brand-new world
[Outro]
Radio head
Radio head
Radio head
Radio head
Oh, radio head
Radio head
Radio head
Radio head
