Turn It On
Wayne's quote from Staring At Sound:
"Not to say that I could peer into the future and see it coming, but there was some vague notion of whatever the Internet was pointing towards, where you're sitting in your own house and you're connected to everything around the world, all your friends and all the things you really like, in your own little space and time."
Wayne wrote "Turn It On" back before Hit To Death In The Future Head, but it would not be recorded and released until Transmissions From The Satellite Heart.

Put your face up to the window
Tell me all about your gay folks
It feels better when you're in it
If your nervous use the pay phone
Put your face where we can see it
Put it on a show on cable
You can really show it all there
Turn it on when you are able
Turn it on
Turn it on and all the way up
Turn it on
In your houses when you wake up
Turn it on
When you ain't got no relation
To all those other stations
Turn it on
Put your life into a bubble
We can pick you up on radar
Hit our satellite with feeling
Give the people what they paid for
Turn it on (turn it on)
Turn it on and all the way up
Turn it on (turn it on)
In your houses when you wake up
Turn it on (turn it on)
When you ain't got no relation
To all those other stations
Turn it on (turn it on)
Turn it on and all the way up (turn it on)
Turn it on (turn it on)
In your houses when you wake up (turn it on)
Turn it on (turn it on)
When you ain't got no relation (turn it on)
To all those other stations
Turn it on
Turn it on (turn it on)
Turn it on and all the way up
Turn it on (turn it on)
In your houses when you wake up
Turn it on (turn it on)
When you ain't got no relation
To all those other stations
Turn it on (turn it on)
Turn it on and all the way up (turn it on)
Turn it on (turn it on)
In your houses when you wake up (turn it on)
Turn it on (turn it on)
When you ain't got no relation (turn it on)
To all those other stations
Turn it on
Tell me all about your gay folks
It feels better when you're in it
If your nervous use the pay phone
Put it on a show on cable
You can really show it all there
Turn it on when you are able
Turn it on and all the way up
Turn it on
In your houses when you wake up
Turn it on
When you ain't got no relation
