Satellite
Dave and Tim Lyrics

Satellite in my eyes
I see satellites in the sky like little dots with my eyes.

Like a diamond in the sky
Satellites look like little sparkling diamonds in the sky.

How I wonder.
I wonder about what those satellites do up there and what they can see from space.

Satellite strung from the moon
There are satellites up in space that are attached to the moon somehow.

And the world your balloon
These satellites are like little balloons up in space, floating and observing the world.

Peeping tom for the mother station
These satellites are like peeping toms, spying on the world for the main satellite station.

[Chorus]
The chorus talks about how everything good needs replacing and encourages people to look up and appreciate the satellites flying overhead.

Winter's cold spring erases
The cold of winter disappears as spring comes around and replaces it with warmth.

And the calm away by the storm is chasing
The peace that comes with calm weather is always fleeting and will be chased away by the next oncoming storm.

Everything good needs replacing
No matter how great something is, eventually it will need to be replaced with something new or improved.

Look up, look down all around, hey satellite
People should take the time to appreciate the sight of a satellite no matter where they are standing or looking.

Satellite, headlines read
The news is talking about a satellite for some reason.

Someone's secrets you've seen
The satellite has been spying on someone and has seen their secrets.

Eyes and ears have been
The satellite has been observing and listening in on things from up above.

Satellite dish in my yard
There is a satellite dish in the singer's yard used for receiving signals from the satellites.

Tell me more, tell me more
The artist wants to know more about the satellites and how they work.

Who's the king of your satellite castle?
Who is in charge of operating and controlling the satellites? Who is the mastermind behind it all?

[Chorus]
The chorus is repeated again.

Rest high above the clouds no restrictions
The satellites can rest up in space above the clouds without any limitations or obstacles in their way.

Television we bounce 'round the world
We are able to transmit television signals all around the world using these satellites as a medium for communication.

And while I spend these hours
While the artist spends time looking up and observing the satellites,

Five senses reeling,
All of their senses are stimulated and overwhelmed by the sight, sound, and feeling of the moment.

I laugh about the weatherman's satellite eyes.
The singer laughs at the thought of how the weatherman on TV sees weather patterns using satellite technology.

[Chorus]
The chorus is repeated again.

Rest high above the clouds no restrictions
The satellites can rest up in space above the clouds without any limitations or obstacles in their way.

Television you bounce from the world
Television signals are able to bounce all around the world using the satellites as a medium for communication.

And while I spend these hours
The singer spends time looking up and observing the satellites,

Five senses reeling
All of their senses are stimulated and overwhelmed by the sight, sound, and feeling of the moment.

I laugh about this world in my satellite eyes.
The artist finds it amusing how they are seeing the world from a satellite's point of view.
