Track Insight / Lyrics
You tune the dial past midnight snow
Coffee black and burning low
Quarter slots eat up your pay
Arcade lights bleed through the gray
Joystick clicks like beetle legs
Synth chords hum through chicken eggs
Fryer grease pops steady time
Your fingers bleed on rhythm rhyme
Cabinet psalm in basement deep
Radio dreams you barely keep
Static supper, signal cold
Story waiting to be told
Regulars don't ask no more
Why you sleep on linoleum floor
Headphones clamped like vise grip tight
Chasing code through pixel night
Cabinet psalm in basement deep
Radio dreams you barely keep
Static supper, signal cold
Story waiting to be told
Hammond wheezes, brass goes mute
Hollowbody sings the root
Bass line walks the prairie wide
You got nowhere left to hide
Sunrise cracks the concrete skin
Day shift cook comes rolling in
Wipes the grill, scrapes off the night
Finds your headphones, finds your light
Logbook shows a frequency
Three AM you set it free
Quarter jammed in donor slot
Best damn signal that I got
Cabinet psalm in basement deep
Radio dreams you barely keep
Static supper, signal cold
Story waiting to be told
Grill stays hot for one more round
Static supper, signal found
