Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros Lyrics

4. Techno D-Day

Well it was a techno D-day out on Omaha beach 
I was a reserve D.J playing Columbian mountain beats 
Andres Landero, Ay mi sombrero 
Hold onto your hats because we gotta go... 

Because the noise inspectors with the sound detectors 
Were coming on down the beach 
And the councellors wanna pounce on us 
There we go disturbing the peace 
And the cornish sun had only just begun 
To sink into the western sea 
So to keep it low so the cops don't know 
I spun my Harry Belafonte 

Yeah yeah yeah 
Yeah yeah yeah 

On a techno D-day, a techno D-day 
Out on Omaha beach 
Where the troops believe in a life of freedom 
And this is all about free speech 

The day became night by the campfire light 
The crowd began testifying 
Using the headphones for a mike, for tenor saw's delight 
I sang another new sound is dying 

On a techno D-day, a techno D-day 
Where the long arm of the law cannot reach 
On a techno D-day, a techno D-day 
We waited on Omaha beach.. 
We waited, And we waited 

Behind me in the booth was the techno crew 
Ready with the crucial beats 
Still they said keep it low, spin your calypso 
We're still waiting for Babylon to retreat 
The crowd was ready to riot, They were sick of being quiet 
We're still waiting for the signal to go 
Then the walkie talkie spat out the all clear 
And the boys hit the decks in full flow, G G G Go Go 

On a techno D-day, a techno D-day 
Out on Omaha beach 
Where the troops believe in a life of freedom 
And this is all about free speech 
On a techno D-day, a techno D-day 
Out on Omaha beach 
Where the troops believe in a life of freedom 
And this is about free speech 
Go Go techno D-day, Go techno D-day 
Sometimes you have to get out of reach 
It was a techno D-day, a techno D-day 
And this is all about free speech
