Satellites |
Fire on the thoroughfare |
No one’s going anywhere |
They say these are but the vestiges |
Their banners look like bandages |
A martyr’s face, an acronym |
Beat the drum and sing the hymn |
Struggle red and bible black |
The riot squad is holding back |
The nation lost an industry |
Someone closed a factory |
The decision unilateral |
The damage done, collateral |
The president was in a pinch |
Budget cuts or start to print |
Basis points gone through the roof |
Now what’s a head of state to do? |
High above without a sound |
The satellites keep going round |
An astronaut, a cameraman |
Is drifting out in no man’s land |
He’s tethered to the studio |
Atlanta we are good to go |
The hungry eye has got the feed |
Producer’s getting what he needs |
The anchor asks: |
Will government cave in to local discontent? |
High above without a sound |
The satellites keep going round |
LCDs on trading floors |
In living rooms, appliance stores |
LCDs at S&P |
Moody’s and Fidelity |
Somewhere there’s an average Joe |
Opening an envelop |
Somewhere a retiree |
Is staring at a balance sheet |
High above without a sound |
The satellites keep going round |
