Lyrics Jewel – Satellite
Text:
Babies on beach blankets headed for Mars
Cute guys in crew cuts with the day goes to bars
There’s a pretty lady in a bikini
Her eyes are clear
She’s trying to fix her dreams
With seaweed and sushi and carrot juice and wheat germ
There’s a wide wall
That she can’t see over now
But that’s ok
Because mistakes are allowed when you’re a
Satellite
A jog in the morning with some vitamins
Then go to a singles bar
California is sure lovely
It’s the home of the stars
And everybody’s got a great body, but mine
That’s just fine
Cuz everybody’s so shriveled up inside
They’re trying to hide behind
Power Bars and Vollyball and Valium
It’s a wide wall
That we can’t see over now
But that’s ok
We’re still growing
You know that
Mistakes are allowed when you’re a
Satellite
No matter where you go
You can’t outrun a cold
You can’t escape the flu
No matter how you try
You can’t stop a satellite
In Hollywood there’s all these heroes
They’re strung out on grace
Half-skinned gypsies
They’re crying to leave this place
There are souls stuck in a bone machine
They are dying in crowded rooms
They are dying of blood on bone
They are crushed by ??
Cigarettes and ?? and high hopes
There’s a wide wall
That we can’t see over now
But that’s all right
We’re still growing
You know that
Mistakes are allowed when you’re a
Satellite
You can’t hold back a Satellite
Satellite
Babies on beach blankets headed for Mars
