Satellites are far away Winter has arrived, not without delay Where the dominant moon now prevalent Through my window frame It's a stage like moon where satellites dance Where stars applaud, surround it It's an analogy of a scene, I recall, a phone call An invite to a play I exchanged the moon for the stage at the play Where there were lights, curtains, and auditorium I thought I would be there with the actors in the room Though it was beamed, via satellite From Nottingham There was just the slightest delay, it was live Satellites are far away The audience applauded, from Nottingham And we soon followed after in our room The play was about The madness of King George It was all kicking off And he didn't take it well It was a real test for modern medicine A time where talk spread fast As fast as the boats it was carried It was a turning point in world affairs The birth of modern America He ran about the stage in his long johns Stained shirt, not a good look Not fit for a king He ran about the stage in Nottingham It was beamed via satellite to our auditorium The audience applauded in Nottingham And we soon followed after in our room I think there was a slight delay Nottingham is far away I think there was a slight delay Satellites are far away
