Lyrics The Lightning Seeds

The Lightning Seeds

Happy Satellite

Every day and every night

I'm stopping planes collide

On my own above blue skies I'm a happy satellite

I watch the world's ugliness it all unfolds as I pass

I see the young and depressed, I hope they learn how to laugh

I'm watching heartache and pain I measure levels of rain

I notice changes in tides, I know where you were last night

I record famines and droughts

Weather fronts and shoot outs

Deforestation and floods

I'm watching couples make love

I'm numb with typhoons and hate

Even police make mistakes

In lakes outside of new towns I'm watching UFOs drown

I'm just a machine that records all I see and

You can shower me with praises

Or arm me with lasers

Up where the skies are blue, I follow your every move,

I'm watching over you, I know when you're cruel

I love it when lightning strikes, it lights up your dreary lives

I wish I was blind

Everywhere I turn or I go there's a rainbow
