Track Insight / Lyrics
He watches steam curl from the spout
Dispatch crackles through the night
A fare paid in silence, no route
Meter frozen at first light
Static kettle sings a song
Frequency where he belongs
Steam and signal intertwine
Kitchen keeps the night in line
Formica scars hold coffee rings
Headset pressed against his ear
Static carries distant things
Voices far but crystal clear
Static kettle sings a song
Frequency where he belongs
Steam and signal intertwine
Kitchen keeps the night in line
Taxi wisdom in his palm
Weather breaks, the meter knows
Calm before the coming storm
Every fare a story grows
Static kettle sings a song
Frequency where he belongs
Steam and signal intertwine
Kitchen keeps the night in line
Kettle whistles, pitch climbs high
Morning light paints gray sky
Snare hits sharp like breaking glass
Bass line walks a jagged path
He breathes the steam, recalls the miles
Night shift ends in morning smiles
Keys hang quiet on the hook
Logbook closed, the shift is done
Sunrise paints the kitchen nook
Another night, another run
Static kettle sings a song
Frequency where he belongs
Steam and signal intertwine
Kitchen keeps the night in line
Static kettle, night is done
Frequency ends with the sun
Steam climbs the window pane
Radio goes quiet now
