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 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 (oh man?, old man? a man?), sewer southern flow
A boy I couldn't name, I knew well
newscast end is still a rambler, useless to my cause
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
Oh, need to spy on a Communist love affair
Nothing('s) on the moon
Nothing I want to see but your face
Couldn't find you any place upon my screen
Bought a satellite
