[INTRO] [Radio static [Frequency scanning [Click] [Click] [Click] [A signal locks in] [Pirate Radio voice:] Good evening, listeners. Welcome back. [VERSE 1] I checked the dial in the daylight Nothing there but empty air Just the usual stations talking Like the signal disappeared But sometime after midnight When the city settles down The static starts arranging itself Into a familiar sound A voice I almost recognize A song I almost know A signal hiding somewhere Between the places radios go [PRE-CHORUS] Every night The same story Every night The same surprise Somewhere between the frequencies The station comes alive [CHORUS] Eighty-eight point eight Somewhere beyond the dial Waiting in the static Waiting all the while Eighty-eight point eight A signal in the dark Close enough to hear Too far away to mark [DROP] Eighty-eight point eight Eighty-eight point eight [VERSE 2] Truckers hear it crossing state lines Sailors hear it off the coast Night shift workers hear it softly Like a half-remembered ghost Some say it's a pirate station Broadcast from an unknown shore Some say it doesn't exist at all Yet people keep hearing more Weather reports and strange horizons Lost coordinates and tides Music drifting through the darkness Like the ocean learned to hide [PRE-CHORUS] Every night The same story Every night The same surprise Somewhere between the frequencies The station comes alive [CHORUS] Eighty-eight point eight Somewhere beyond the dial Waiting in the static Waiting all the while Eighty-eight point eight A signal in the dark Close enough to hear Too far away to mark [DROP] Eighty-eight point eight Eighty-eight point eight [RADIO STATIC] [BRIDGE] Nobody knows who built it Nobody knows where it starts Nobody knows how it reaches The far side of the charts Nobody knows why the signal Only wakes beneath the moon Yet every night the station finds us And every night we tune [BUILD] Tune in Stay awhile Tune in Stay awhile Tune in Stay awhile Welcome back [FINAL CHORUS] Eighty-eight point eight Somewhere beyond the dial Waiting in the static Waiting all the while Eighty-eight point eight A signal in the dark Close enough to hear Too far away to mark Eighty-eight point eight Eighty-eight point eight Somewhere beyond the dial [OUTRO] [Pirate Radio voice:] Current signal strength remains stable. Thank you for listening. We'll be here when you return. [Radio static] Transmission continues...
