Satellite
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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 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 ? ? ? , sewer southern flow
A boy I couldn't name, I knew well
? ? ? still a rambler, 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
(guitar solo)
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)
