Well, it was a techno D-Day
Out on Omaha Beach
I was a reserve DJ playing
Colombian mountain beats
ย
And there's the Nero
I need sombrero
Colombia hats, we gotta go
Because the noise inspectors
With the sound detectors
Were coming on down the beach
And the councillors wanna pounce on us
How dare we go disturbing the peace
And the Cornish side had only just begun
To sink into the western sea
So they keep it low, so the cops don't know
I spun my Parabellum 20
ย
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
ย
With David K. Knight
By the campfire light
The crowd began testifying
Using their headphones for a mic
For Tenor Saw's Delilah sang
And the ringy sound is dying
On a techno D-Day, a techno D-Day
With a long, long time reach
On a techno D-Day, techno D-Day
We waited on Omaha Beach
We waited, we waited
Behind me in the booth was the techno crew
Ready with the crucial beats
So they say, "Keep it low, spin your clew, and so
We're waiting for Babylon to retreat"
The crowd was waiting right there, they're sick of being quiet
'Cause they're waiting for the signal to go
Then the walkie-talkie, yeah, spat out the all clear
And the voices could take sinful flow
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go
ย
It was a techno D-Day, a techno D-Day
Way out on Omaha Beach
Where the troops believe in a life of freedom
And this is all about free speech
Techno D-Day, a techno D-Day
Way out on Omaha Beach
Where the troops believe in a life of freedom
And this is all about free speech
Go, go, techno D-Day, go techno D-Day
Sometimes you just have to get out of reach
It was a techno D-Day, a techno D-Day
And this is all about free speech
