I can hear you by they might be giants.
Made at the Edison laboratories.
I can hear you
Just barely hear you
I can just barely hear you
This is a warning
Step away from the car
This car is protected by viper
Guess where I am
I'm calling from the plane
I'll call you when I get there
You won't hear a buzz
But I'm buzzing you in
I'm buzzing you in
What's your order?
I can super-size that
Please bring your car around
I can hear you
Just barely hear you
I can just barely hear you
Made at the Edison laboratories.
I can hear you
Just barely hear you
I can just barely hear you
This is a warning
Step away from the car
This car is protected by viper
Guess where I am
I'm calling from the plane
I'll call you when I get there
You won't hear a buzz
But I'm buzzing you in
I'm buzzing you in
What's your order?
I can super-size that
Please bring your car around
I can hear you
Just barely hear you
I can just barely hear you

Well, all of the verses describe modern situations where a voice would be muffled and distorted (fast food drive thru windows, talking car alarms, the voice box at the door of apartment buildings, etc.), and of course because it's recorded on wax cylinder, the song itself is also muffled and distorted. So I guess it's saying that we have all this high tech audio equipment around, but you still can't understand the guy at the drive-thru window.
