Coverage

(album: Thousand Roads - 1993)

The TV is talking to me
It's positive identification
But maybe I'm mistaken
I talk to my radio
I keep it tuned to the all night show
I'd give my last dime for coverage
But you will not cover me

I got a penchant for the printed page
I got a mention in the Monday news
I was on my last leg
When it came through
I talk to my radio
I keep it tuned to the all night show
I'd give my last dime for coverage
But you will not cover me
No no no no

Tune it in to the pale blue light
Whispers to me through the night
Better love
Better lovers
Cover cover cover cover
Cover cover cover cover
Coverage

I would have made it sooner see
But I got caught up in the dream traffic
Blew the demographics
I talk to my radio
I keep it tuned to the all night show
I'd give my last dime for coverage
But you will not cover me
No. You will not cover me
No. You will not cover me
