Ultra-Powerful Short Wave Radio Picks Up Music From Venus

He loved to listen to sports from Spain
And newscasts from Nebraska
Mariachi music from Mexico
And weather reports from Alaska
He heard talk shows from Texas and Tennessee
And a ball game from Baltimore
But one night he listened to something strange
That he'd never heard before
He turned the volume all the way up
Till it hissed and it crackled and popped
A few minutes later he turned it off
And his ears rang after it stopped
He scratched his head and rubbed his eyes
Then a grin spread across his face
Somehow he figured that what he had heard
Was coming from outer space
The song was sincere and simple
But it lacked any wit or charm
It sounded a lot like a Crosby, Queen
A drill, and a burglar alarm
It might have been music from Venus
That he listened to that night
But I think it was probably the static you hear
When your radio's not tuned in right
