Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros - Global A Go-go lyrics

Your rating:

To all wavebands on earth

Reconnoitre on the killahertz



This tune is going out to Marconi

To all corners of the globe

There ain't no hut in the Serengeti

Where my wavelengths do not probe

If a rocket went to Saturn

We sure hope a D.J. is on board

For some antigravity mixing

With two dub plates of URoy



Throwdown Stray Cat strut in Bulawayo  hey, Bulawayo

Buddy Rich in Burundi

Quadrophenia in Armenia

Armenia City In The Sky

Big Youth booming in Djkarta

Nina Simone over Sierra Leone

Wild sound of Joujouka in Nevada  hey, Joujouka

Everywhere, everywhere Bob's bringing it all back home



Yeah, I let the boogiewoogie rumble

In the back of Bangalore

I get complaints from Bondi Beach

What, no longboard surf hardcore

Oh, send the rock steady out to Freddy

Who juggles plates in Tsing Tao City



Cos tonight Bo Diddley's in Finland Station  hey, Bo Diddley

Sun Ra's in Omaha

The Skatalites in New York City  hey, Skatalites

The Stooges rule over Habana

The Bhundu Boys rock Acapulco  hey, hey Bhundu Boys

Good hip hop in Islamabad

Ali Farke Toure's in Oaxaca  hey, Farke Toure

And Baaba Maal's all over Stalingrad



Yeah, while some are waking, some are sleeping

From Kamchatka to the Gabon

Above the tradewind, wingtips beating

We calling out for Ronnie and dado Ron, Ron, Ron



We call the Cumbria to tumble

From the peak of the Himalayas

We send the funk into the jungle

To the last outpost of the bass player
