[verse]
Bm     C        G
Cellar floor on bare feet.
Bm           C                G
We come down here to beat the heat.
Bm     C            G
Orange sofa, yellow chair.
Bm     C           G
The antenna in the air.

[verse]
Bm     C             G
Saw an ad for "Plate World"
Bm            C                      G
Or we'd watch M.A.S.H. three times a day.
Bm        C               G
Sign says no. "No Feet On Table"
Bm        C                G
Sign says no, we can't get cable.
      A                           D
And a brand new station blows our minds.
C             Em           D
Everything is changing on TV.
     C             Em         D
What Cable could enable us to see.
     C                Em
But, in the air there is a sound,
     A
From outer space or all around.



   D                  C       Em    G
On 66, UHF, there are videos, music videos.
   D                    C                 Em G
No radio. No stereo. We sold our souls to V--66.
Ab                      A
In the basement. Out on Bass Rocks.


[verse]
Bm          C                    G
An air-wave raid, sound Trevor's Horn.
Bm            C            G
So we watched pop become reborn.
        A                        D
You can put the blame on you and me.
C             Em           D
Everything is changing on TV.
  C                  Em                 D
A snare drum full of milk, it works for me.
     C                Em
But, in the air there is a sound,
     A
From outer space or all around.

    D                  C               Em        G
The astronaut from MTV shut them down, all those V.J.s.
   D                 C            Em G
I got a tape on VHS, we can watch V66.
Ab                      A
