[Verse 1]
Satellite's gone up to the skies
Things like that drive me out of my mind
I watched it for a little while
I like to watch things on TV

[Chorus]
Satellite of love
Satellite of love
Satellite of love
Satellite of

[Verse 2]
Satellite's gone way up to Mars
Soon it'll be filled with parking cars
I watched it for a little while
I love to watch things on TV

[Chorus]
Satellite of love
Satellite of love
Satellite of love
Satellite of

[Bridge]
I've been told that you've been bold
With Harry, Mark and John
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday through Thursday
With Harry, Mark and John

[Verse 1]
Satellite's gone up to the skies
Things like that drive me out of my mind
I watched it for a little while
I love to watch things on TV

[Chorus]
Satellite of love
Satellite of love
Satellite of love
Satellite of

[Outro]
Satellite of love
Satellite (satellite) of love (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Satellite (satellite, oh-uuh) of love (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Satellite (satellite) of love (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Satellite (satellite) of love (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Satellite (satellite) of love (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Satellite (satellite) of love (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
Satellite (satellite) of love (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
