Thirty more channels than you need
I could tune in free
Some rabbit ears, some foil, and a hanger
Static on channel 13 cleared, long enough for a scene.
A jet flew over head, and it faded.
Couldn't find you any place upon my screen...
Bought a satellite, bought a satellite, bought a satellite
...Satellite
Dug up from the depths of old man sewers southern flow.
A boy I couldn't name, I knew well.
And still I render, useless to my call,
You're nowhere to be found on the airwaves
Couldn't find you any place 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 any place upon my screen
Need to (spy???) and I'm coming for your love over there
Nothing along the ?????
Nothing I want to see but your face
Couldn't find you any place upon my screen
Bought a satellite (repeat)
I could tune in free
Some rabbit ears, some foil, and a hanger
Static on channel 13 cleared, long enough for a scene.
A jet flew over head, and it faded.
Couldn't find you any place upon my screen...
Bought a satellite, bought a satellite, bought a satellite
...Satellite
Dug up from the depths of old man sewers southern flow.
A boy I couldn't name, I knew well.
And still I render, useless to my call,
You're nowhere to be found on the airwaves
Couldn't find you any place 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 any place upon my screen
Need to (spy???) and I'm coming for your love over there
Nothing along the ?????
Nothing I want to see but your face
Couldn't find you any place upon my screen
Bought a satellite (repeat)

corrected lines with ->
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
