Cosmic American


I’m a live wire

I’m a shortwave radio

Do you copy?

T’m a flash of light from the radar tower

To the runway

If I leave you

I’m gonna do it semi-automatically

Do you blame me?


You are so far out there in the static

Hey, baby, am i coming through?

I am up above the buildings

I can see forever out the window of a hotel room

I spent a long night with a stranger I give my body to

Still I miss you


Still I never knew a love so tender

We’re out behind your astro van

And you’ve got me up against the fender

You are the cosmic American man


I’m a live wire

I’m a shortwave radio

Do you copy?

I’m a flash of light from the radar tower to the runway

If I love you

I’m gonna do it semi-automatically

Do you blame me?

Do you blame me?

Do you blame me?
