do you have the entire tracklist on the tape? what songs pay before and after this song?

The 2 minute recording is all I have. I recorded it in Osnabrück, Northwest of Germany. Either a German radio station or BFBS (British Forces Broadcasting Service).

Do you have any idea which radio station you recorded the song on and which program it was on? If you don't remember precisely, can you tell us what radio stations you were listening to at the time?

@rockmusic - I know others have asked and you seem to have disappeared, but the lostwave community is investigating this, and if you have any additional details about this song, it could be incredibly useful!

i mean, those are pretty good. i dont see anything wrong here. i do not know too many popular words from this genre and era, so mine was pretty inaccurate. also with the note at the bottom, i just wanted to say, it might say "dreamlife".

Here are some more (I believe) accurate lyrics, thanks to marktrail for them:

[Verse 1]
Did we see you in the white marquee?
Bright red jacket with a whip in your hand
Spreading faith and hope like sawdust
Ringmaster of the western lands

[Pre-Chorus]
What will the liberty horses wear
When they meet in the finale with the Russian bear?
What will the liberty horses wear
When they meet in the finale with the Russian bear?

[Chorus]
Take us to Dreamland*
Never what it seems land
Take us to Dreamland
Never what it seems land

[Verse 2]
Did we see you in the promised land?
All clear profit in the arms deal book
Selling guns to an angry man
God save Ronnie, let us off the hook

[Pre-Chorus]
Be as big as Jesus by 1983
And make the world safe for democracy
Be as big as Jesus by 1983
And make the world safe for democracy

[Chorus]
Or take us to Dreamland
Never what it seems land
Take us to Dreamland
Never what it seems land
Take us to Dreamland
Never what it seems land
Take us to Dreamland
Never what it seems land

*Not sure if they're actually saying Dreamland, but I don't know what else it would be

Thanks for the vocaroo clip! I now have the full, *unconfirmed and still working on* lyrics! Here it is:

Didn’t see you and the white monkey

riding the jacket with a whip in your a**

Spreading fate when he now like all of us

Ring master on the western lands

What will he leave when his horses will

Leading a gold army with the Russian man

we're wanting to leave but he holds us back

Leading a gold army with the Russian man

Take us to dreamland

Never wanted to see clouds

Take us to dreamland

Never wanted to see clouds

Did he see you in the promised life?

All hear rummage in the all steel boat

Sailing gone to a nightly man

Gone, sang, running when he’s on the horse

We all take it, please it

By 1983

Make our world safe for our mom to see

We all take it, please it

By 1983

Make our world safe for our mom to see

Take us to dreamland

Never wanted to see clouds

Take us to dreamland

Never wanted to see clouds

Take us to dreamland

Never wanted to see clouds

Take us to dreamland

Never wanted to see clouds

Take us to dream-

I think it says - "Leading a gold army with the Russian man, we're wanting to leave but he holds us back. Leading a gold army with the Russian man, take us to dreamland. Never wanted to see clouds." It is very hard to hear because of the quality, and any vocal separation with AI would not help. This is probably from a show or commercial, but I can't confirm because of the lack of info you gave. Please provide more info. I would like to see it. Maybe dates? Maybe quality?

NO! My headphones helped again. "Walk where the liberty horses were / when they're beating up an army with the Russian bear". The Russian Bear is a metaphorical term for the Russians as enemies.
