Listen To The Radio

Leave the bureau in the snow

Catch a train to Onkel Pö

Early evening ring around the moon

Slip in by the concierge

By the bikes and up the stairs

Snap the latch and creep into the room

Throw off your coat

Pick up the post

Put a coffee on

Lie down on the bed

Lay back your head

Smoke a cigarette

And listen to the radio

Listen to the radio

In the city, late tonight

Double feature, black and white

"Bitter Tears" and "Taxi to the Klo"

Find a bar, avoid a fight

Show your papers, be polite

Walking home with nowhere else to go

You throw off your coat, pick up my note

Put another coffee on

Lie down on the bed

Lay back your head

Smoke another cigarette

And listen to the radio

Listen to the radio

You throw off your coat, pick up my note

Put another coffee on

Lie down on the bed

Lay back your head

Smoke another cigarette

Smoke another cigarette

Atmospherics after dark

Noise and voices from the past

Across the dial from Moscow to Cologne

Interference in the night

Thousand miles on either side

Stations fading into the unknown

So throw off your coat

Butter some toast

Put another coffee on

We'll lie down on the bed

Lay back our heads

Smoke another cigarette

And listen to the radio

Listen to the radio

Listen to the radio

Listen to the radio

Listen to the radio
