Satellite Lyrics
Thirty more channels than you need
I could tune in free
Some rabbit ears, some foil in a hanger
Static on channel 13 cleared long enough for a scene
A jet flew overhead and it faded
Couldn't find you anyplace upon my screen
Bought a satellite, bought a satellite, bought a satellite
Satellite
Dug up from the depths of oh that sewer southern flow
A boy I couldn't name, I knew well
[???] still a rambler, useless to my cause
You're nowhere to be found on the airwaves
Couldn't find you anyplace upon my screen
Bought a satellite, bought a satellite, bought a satellite
Satellite
So far from my reach
Close enough to see
I sleep beside the set at night and I can't let you leave
Couldn't find you anyplace upon my screen
Oh, need to spy and I'm coming for your love over there
Nothing on the moon
Nothing I want to see but your face
Couldn't find you anyplace upon my screen
Bought a satellite
Bought a satellite
Bought a satellite
Bought a satellite
Bought a satellite
Bought a satellite
I could tune in free
Some rabbit ears, some foil in a hanger
A jet flew overhead and it faded
Bought a satellite, bought a satellite, bought a satellite
Satellite
A boy I couldn't name, I knew well
[???] still a rambler, useless to my cause
You're nowhere to be found on the airwaves
Bought a satellite, bought a satellite, bought a satellite
Satellite
Close enough to see
I sleep beside the set at night and I can't let you leave
Oh, need to spy and I'm coming for your love over there
Nothing on the moon
Nothing I want to see but your face
Bought a satellite
Bought a satellite
Bought a satellite
Bought a satellite
Bought a satellite
Bought a satellite

A boy I couldn't name, I knew well ->Newscast [man or end] is still a render useless to my cause You're nowhere to be found on the airwaves
Couldn't find you any place on my screen ->Need to spy on a communist love affair ->Nothing along the moon Nothing I want to see but your face
this lyric is awesome, too bad it is mostly unintelligible (once I caught communist it all fell together) - a communist love affair refers to sputnik (first satellite) and the moon is also a satellite

Lol. C’mon now! Corrections.
Some rabbit ears, some foil, and a hanger
A boy they couldn’t name, I knew well
Newscast ended and still I’m rendered useless to my cause
Sleep beside the set at night and I can’t let you in
