Radio (The Backing Band Miss Their Cue and a False Start Ensues) Songtext
von Crosby, Stills & Nash

Just like in the movies a message
Comes through all the static and hiss
Just enough words from the storm-filled sky
To know that someone somewhere needs this

The radioman runs to the wheelhouse
He′s got that message held tight in his fist
And as someone's off with the wireless
Saying someone somewhere needs this

For you to look out
Look down
Reach your hand into the water
For you to look out
Look down
Pull someone out of the sea
Pull em out of the sea

You are the captain and this is your ship
You don′t have to be side when it's done
Think about it when you're on watch tonight
That someday this message will come


For you to look out
Look down
And reach your hand into the water
For you to look out
Look down
Pull someone out of the sea

Your hands are slippery
The wind is strong
The boat is rocking
And the world is a storm

Your hands are slippery
Wanna turn and run free
But you can pull someone out of the sea, yeah

Look out
Look down
Reach your hands into the water
For you to look out
Look down
Pull someone out of the sea

For you to look out
Look down
Reach your hands into the water
For you to look out
Look down
Pull someone out of the sea
