Here in England it's so green
Martian men can move unseen
Apparatus underground

Monitor the crunching sound

Joey's gone and Georgie's gone

Put their best torn trousers on
Found a crowbar and a drill
Headed for the Berlin Wall


Last night I swear I saw her face
As they stormed the gates on satellite TV

Too bad I don't get News At Ten
Cause the CNN would tell a different story


Eastern Bloc, Eastern Bloc
You're never gonna break that deadbolt
How can I shake that gridlock, shell-shock


Tune it out, tune it in Europa, Europa
Shine across these waves and rescue me

Loud and clear through thick and thin, Europa, Europa
Come in come in come in come in, do you read?
Are you receiving me?


So I was fourteen she was twelve
Father travelled, hers as well

Down the beaches hand in hand
Twelfth of never on the sand


And we said we'd be the pirate twins again
In the freezing rain of the Eastern Bloc
And I used to think each time we kissed it was for real

But tonight I feel that the wind has changed

Eastern Bloc, Eastern Bloc

You're never gonna break that deadbolt
How can I shake that gridlock, shell-shock


Tune it out, tune it in Europa, Europa
Shine across these waves and rescue me
Loud and clear through thick and thin, Europa, Europa

Come in come in come in come in, do you read?
Are you receiving me?


Eastern Bloc, Eastern Bloc
You're never gonna break that deadbolt
How can I shake that gridlock, shell-shock


Tune it out, tune it in Europa, Europa
Shine across these waves and rescue me

Down the years through thick and thin, Europa, Europa
Come in come in come in come in, do you read?


Tune it out, tune it in Europa, Europa
Shine across these waves and rescue me
Loud and clear through thick and thin, Europa, Europa

Come in come in come in come in, do you read?
Are you receiving me?
