lyrics
Kitchen radio, half past two, static, then the bassline breaks through. Tower-block aerial, taped and true, a hundred metres over the avenue. Lock the dial, don't touch it, fam — this frequency is who I am. Catch the signal, catch the signal, rooftop to the block, invincible, catch the signal, catch the signal, sub-bass running through us all, catch the signal — pass it on, ten thousand kitchens, one song. Next door's broom against the wall — I post love through the plaster, that's all. The break rolls on, the sub takes hold, five floors up and made of gold. Catch the signal, catch the signal, rooftop to the block, invincible, catch the signal, catch the signal, sub-bass running through us all, catch the signal — pass it on, ten thousand kitchens, one song. When they cut the power, we re-rig. When they take the mast, we build it big. Can't arrest a frequency — the airwaves were born free. Catch the signal, catch the signal, rooftop to the block, invincible, catch the signal, catch the signal, sub-bass running through us all, catch the signal — pass it on, ten thousand kitchens, one song. Signal — signal — si-si-signal — pass it on! Pass it on!
