[Verse 1: Mark Hoppus]
I can almost see your house from here, but the signal seems to
Disappear, so what's the problem? Houston's calling
Then you hit me like a Friday night, like a handgun in a firefight
Dive in slow motion towards the ocean

[Chorus: Matt Skiba]
Let's run away, let's go and waste another year
Let's spin apart while racing through the atmosphere
We tumble through the night
We burn so bright, we're teenage satellites

[Post-Chorus: Matt Skiba]
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh

[Verse 2: Matt Skiba]
I'm kind of nervous of the consequence, as we climb over the
Neighbor's fence, the longest summer's nights are numbered
Then you kissed me like a storm at sea, like I'm the only one you'll
Ever need, we're left abandoned in the deep end

[Chorus: Matt Skiba]
Let's run away, let's go and waste another year
Let's spin apart while racing through the atmosphere
We tumble through the night
We burn so bright, we're teenage satellites

[Post-Chorus: Matt Skiba]
(We're teenage satellites)

[Bridge: Mark Hoppus]
We are a slow descent, forgotten astronauts
We are an avalanche, we're just an afterthought

[Chorus: Matt Skiba]
Let's run away, let's go and waste another year
Let's spin apart while racing through the atmosphere
We tumble through the night
We burn so bright, we're teenage satellites

[Post-Chorus: Matt Skiba and Mark Hoppus]
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh, we're teenage satellites
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh, teenage satellites
Whoa oh oh oh oh oh, teenage satellites...

​​blink-182

blink-182 set off the 1990s storm of pop-punk, blazing a trail in the genre with electrifying riffs and memorable lines—“Fuck a Dog,” anyone? The band has seen some lineup changes over the years, but its core trio (Tom DeLonge, Mark Hoppus, and Travis Barker) has mostly stood the test of time. As of 2015, DeLonge left the band to pursue other projects.

Founded in 1992 in Poway, California (a suburb in San Diego), DeLonge, Hoppus, and former drummer Scott Raynor formed the band in Raynor’s bedroom, writing songs for their demos, and playing practical jokes along the way. Initially, under the name Blink, the trio was forced to change the name to avoid a lawsuit with the Irish pop-rock group of the same name, so they added “182” at random (fans continue to speculate what “182” means to this day).

After releasing their demo album Buddha, blink-182 released Cheshire Cat in 1995 under Cargo Records. While not a major success at the time, the album generated buzz from the Southern California punk scene and major labels alike. After being signed to MCA Records, the band released Dude Ranch in 1997 with the hit singles “Dammit” and “Josie”.
