Telegraph - Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark

I've got a telegraph in my hand, words on paper written in sand
We've got telegraph right across this land
It doesn't mean a damn thing, we don't understand
But who needs telegraph, anyway?

I've got a telegraph in my hand, words on paper written in sand
We've got telegraph right across this land
It doesn't mean a damn thing, we don't understand
God's got a telegraph on his side

It makes him powerful, gives him pride
Even in America they understand
The value of the telegraph hand in hand
