[Verse 1]
They're watching me
They're watching you
Taking all the world under control
They make you laugh
They make you blue
In the end they try to eat your soul

[Chorus]
Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We can't escape the media overkill

[Verse 2]
A purple flash
The biggest crash
Totally in tune around the world
They take you high
They make you cry
We are at the point of no return

[Chorus]
Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We can't escape the media overkill
Over and over and over

[Chorus]
Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We can't escape the media overkill
Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We can't escape the media overkill

Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We can't escape the media overkill
Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We can't escape the media overkill

Over and over and over
Over and over and over

[Chorus]
Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We can't escape the media overkill
Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We can't escape the media overkill

Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We can't escape the media overkill
Satellites transmit the latest thrill
We can't escape the media overkill
