Replacements, The - 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 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

    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 then 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 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 wanna see but your face
    Couldn't find you any place upon my screen
    Bought a satellite
    Bought a satellite
    Bought a satellite
    Bought a satellite
    Bought a satellite
    Bought a satellite

    Brilliant

    One of if not the best song they released here at the end. Urgency when singing about gettin' together in a second hand way. He always loved his models.

    M.... S....

    This is Tommy Stinson's song. Westerberg only produced it; didn't even play on it.

    M.... S....

    @Spencer Coe right! what is Matthew talking about about? He always loved his models?

    M.... S....

    Nevermind, Tommy is singing to a women newscaster he likes on the screen, I think. Or singing to a lost girlfriend?
