[Lyric] Chinese Radio (London Boys)

It was back in '69
Like a nightmare cryin'
In a hotel bed on the coast

Happy Shanghai girls
Like a pretty string of pearls
And a snow storm up in my nose

I was on my way to heaven
With a funky red 11
And a switchblade job on the side

Hear the music playin' and my heartbeat prayin'
To the airways out in the night

Ouh, radio! I love my radio!
My chinese radio
Ouh, radio! I love my radio!
My chinese radio
Ouh
Oh, I could write a million stories
Tales of love and hate and pain
And my fears would truly frighten
Any ordinary man

Is there someone out there laughing
Walking in the pouring rain
Lord, I'm sure I know the answers
But it's too hard to explain

Now my head is burning
An' I feel it turning
In an igloo up on the moon

Saying: Lord, have mercy
On a guy from Jersey
And it falls back into my room

Just a stranded tourist
An' I wouldn't touch the purest
If I ever get out here alive

While the FM-switches
And the green-light digits
Keep in touch with the world outside
Ouh, radio! I love my radio!
My chinese radio
Ouh, radio! I love my radio!
My chinese radio
Ouh

Oh, I could write a million stories
Tales of love and hate and pain
And my fears would truly frighten
Any ordinary man

Is there someone out there laughing
Walking in the pouring rain
Lord, I'm sure I know the answers
But it's too hard to explain

Just a river on the run, now
I'm flyin' and I won't touch down
Got nowhere left to run
I get on my knees and pray!

Oh, I could write a million stories
Tales of love and hate and pain
And my fears would truly frighten
Any ordinary man
Is there someone out there laughing
Walking in the pouring rain
Lord, I'm sure I know the answers
But it's too hard to explain
