lyrics

Three years on the 15th floor
Took me two more just to shut the door
Wake up with the setting sun
Taste in my mouth of last night’s rum

A place where we could all hide
From the rest of our lives

I’m blinded by the flashing lights
Money flows through my hands every night
I’m propped up by the weight of sound
Don’t look me up on your way down

Fist fights with middle aged men
We’re down the Eagle again

Come on and listen
To our transmission
This is Radio Galway
We’ll broadcast to the town
Until they knock it down
Radio Galway every day

Come on and listen
To the last transmission
This is Radio Galway
We broadcast to the town
And now they’ve knocked it down
Radio Galway died today

The lift is out of order
And that’s just fine by me
Cos I can’t face you
Can’t take more misery
Go if you’ve got to go
But don’t take the radio
Cos I can’t get by

I’m fifteen stories high
Sun in my eyes
And all those long forgotten years
Ringing in my ears

We are still listening
