World service bulletin
From the nightshift DJs
All wavebands on earth
Reconnoitre on the killahertz
This tune is going out to Marconi
To all corners of the globe
There ain't no hut in the Serengeti
Where my wavelengths do not probe
And if a rocket went to Saturn
We sure hope a DJ is on board
For some anti-gravity mixing
With two dubplates of U-Roy
Throw down
Stray Cat rock in Bulawayo (hey, Bulawayo)
Buddy Rich in Burundi
Quadrophenia in Armenia
Armenia City in the sky
Big Youth booming in Djakarta
Nina Simone over Sierra Leone
Wild sound of Joujouka in Nevada (hey, Joujouka)
Everywhere, everywhere punk bringing it all back home
Yeah, I let the boogie-woogie rumble
In the back of Bangalore
I get complaints from Bondi Beach
What, no longboard surf hardcore?
Oh, send the rock steady out to Freddy
Who juggles plates in Tsing Tao City
'Cause tonight
Bo Diddley's in Finland Station (hey, Bo Diddley)
Sun Ra's in Omaha
The Skatalites in New York City (hey, Skatalites)
The Stooges rule over Habana
The Bhundu Boys rock Acapulco (hey, hey, Bhundu Boys)
Good hip hop in Islamabad
Ali Farke Toure's in Oaxaca (hey, Ali Farke Toure)
N'baaba Maal's all over Stalingrad
Yeah
While some are waking, some are sleeping
From Kamchatka to the Gabon
Above the Tradewind wingtips beating
We calling out for Ronnie
And da-do, Ron, Ron, Ron
Da-do, Ron, Ron, Ron
Da-do, Ron, Ron, Ron
We call the Cumbria to tumble
From the peak of the Himalayas
We send the funk into the jungle
To the last outpost of the bass player
The request line is over
Yeah, yeah, yeah
