Discover the story of the song > Is This Thing On? – the promise ring

The lyrics are repetitive and don't have a clear narrative or meaning. However, the protagonist seems to be trying to communicate with someone in Delaware, asking if they are aware of Air Supply and the Television. They also ask if the connection is still on and if the person is coming down. The song ends with more repetition of these same questions. It's unclear whether this is a personal message or just a vague attempt at communication.
