Satellite
TNT Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You think you've got it made
With all the money you saved
For that one rainy day
You've got a brand new car
You're feeling just like a star
And well maybe you are

If I had a satellite
I would tell the world tonight
And shout through the sky
We're living a lie

Cocktails and cigarettes
Late nights and sometimes regrets
That you'd just soon forget
Got all the things you need
The big machine that you feed
Yeah cause we all agreed

If I had a satellite
I would tell the world tonight
And shout through the sky we're living a lie
There's no need to analyze
Think too much we're paralyzed
It's time to get free, ah c'mon get free
If I had a satellite
I would tell the world tonight
And shout through the sky we're living a lie
There's no need to analyze




Think too much we're paralyzed
It's time to get free, ah c'mon get free

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of TNT's song Satellite seem to criticize materialistic values in society. The opening lines imply that the singer believes that their wealth will secure their future, but the subsequent lines suggest a level of ambivalence about that sentiment as well. The song continues to explore the idea of societal expectations and how individuals become trapped in the rat race of consumerism.


The lyrics "If I had a satellite, I would tell the world tonight, and shout through the sky we're living a lie" suggest that the singer has come to the realization that wealth and material possessions are not the key to happiness. They want to broadcast this message to the world and awaken others to the idea that they are living a lie that has perpetuated itself for generations.


The lyrics "There's no need to analyze, think too much we're paralyzed, it's time to get free, ah c'mon get free" seem to speak to the idea that our thoughts and fears can hold us back from living a fulfilling life. The song’s primary message, as implied through these lyrics, is that we should break free from societal expectations and embrace a life where we value things that matter beyond materialistic values.
