I'm on a Mexican Radio!

[TheMightyFavog]

I feel a hot wind on my shoulder
And the touch of a world that is older
I turn the switch and check the number
I leave it on when in bed I slumber
I hear the rhythms of the music
I buy the product and never use it
I hear the talking of the DJ
Can't understand just what does he say?

I'm on a mexican radio. I'm on a Mexican - whoah - radio

I dial it in and tune the station
They talk about the U.S. inflation
I understand just a little
No comprende, it's a riddle

I'm on a mexican radio. I'm on a Mexican, whoa-Oh, radio
I'm on a mexican radio. I'm on a Mexican, whoa-Oh, radio

I wish I was in Tijuana
Eating barbequed iguana
I'd take requests on the telephone
I'm on a wavelength far from home
I feel a hot wind on my shoulder
I dial it in from south of the border
I hear the talking of the DJ
Can't understand just what does he say?

I'm on a mexican radio. I'm on a Mexican, whoa-Oh, radio
I'm on a mexican radio. I'm on a Mexican, whoa-Oh, radio

Radio radio... Radio radio... Radio radio...
I'm on a mexican radio. I'm on a Mexican, whoa-Oh, radio
I'm on a mexican radio. I'm on a Mexican, whoa-Oh, radio
Radio radio... What does he say ?

Is Stan Ridgeway doing anything now?

2. Oh man, earworm, earworm, earworm!

I can't get the chorus out of my head. I can still see the video clearly. Oingo Boingo, classic!

3. Um, Wall of Voodoo, no?

Of course Oingo Boingo is also classic. :-)

4. Ridgeway/Wall of Voodoo..

... was a great band, and that song is one of many they did that was way cool.

Ridgeway is actually quite a good songwriter!

5. Ridgeway talks just like he sings...

when I was in college, he came in to pick up a pizza at my place. And, of course, I burst out with, "Holy fuck man! You talk just like you sing!"

Strange look from Stan
