Satellite Lyrics

the witness said it's extraordinary
she's shiftless in red maybe some dead
and buried love
might make a scene
you know what i mean?
for crying out loud
with cosmos pink
they all toasted you byee
but i needed another drink
just to look you in the eye
'cause i don't want you to go
i don't want you to go
i miss you already
satellite
you're blue salt water taffy
so don't ride down toteh vegas strip
satellite
i want you to be happy
if you'll smile for me
we'll pretend like you never left
i wish i tried to meet you at the airport
i wish that you lied
the west was your last resort
but if i can keep the black coat
you can keep the veuve clicquot
satellite.....

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
