Texty: Joe Strummer and The Mescaleros. Global A Go-Go.

World service bulletin
From the nightshift D.J.
To all wavebands on Earth
Reconnoiter 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

An' if a rocket went to Saturn
We sure hope a D.J. is on board
For some anti-gravity mixing
With two dub plates of U-Roy

Throwdown, Stray Cat Strut in Bulawayo
Buddy Rich in Burundi
Quadraphenia in Armenia
Armenia City in the sky

Big Youth booming in Djkarta
Nina Simone over Sierra Leone
Wild sound of Joujouka in Nevada
Everywhere, everywhere
Bob's bringing it all back home

Yeah, I let the Boogie Woogie 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

'Cause tonight Bo Diddley's in Finland Station
Sun Ra's in Omaha
The Skatalites in New York City
The Stooges rule over Habana

The Bhundu Boys rock Acapulco
Good hip hop in Islamabad
Ali Farke Toure's in Oaxaca
N'Baaba Maal's all over Stalingrad

While some are waking, some are sleeping
From Kamchatka to the Gabon
Above the Tradewind wingtips beating
We calling out for Ronnie
And da do Ron Ron Ron

We call the Cumbria to tumble
From the peaks of the Himalayas
We send the Funk into the jungle
To the last outpost of the bass player
