Electric Avenue Lyrics

Boy...

Boy...
Now in the street there is violence
And - and a lots of work to be done
No place to hang out our washing

And - and i can't blame all on the sun
Oh no no
Oh no we gonna rock down to electric avenue
And then we'll take it higher

Oh we gonna rock it down to electric avenue
And then we'll take it higher
Workin' so hard like a soldier
Can't afford a thing on tv

Deep in my heart I am a warrior
Can't get food for them kid
Good god we gonna rock down to electric avenue
And then we'll take it higher

Oh we gonna rock down to electric avenue
And then we'll take it higher
Oh no
Oh no

Oh no
Oh no
Oh no we gonna rock down to electric avenue
And then we'll take it higher

Oh we gonna rock down to electric avenue
And then we'll take it higher
Who is to blame in one country
Never can get to the one

Dealin' in multiplication
And they still can't feed everyone
Oh no we gonna rock down to electric avenue
And then we'll take it higher

Oh no we gonna rock down to electric avenue
And then we'll take it higher
2nd interlude:
Out in the street

Out in the street
Out in the dead time
Out in the night
Oh we gonna rock down to electric avenue

And then we'll take it higher
Oh, we gonna rock down to electric avenue
And then we'll take it higher
3rd interlude:
Out in the street
Out in the street
Out in the playground
In the dark side of town
Oh, we gonna rock down to electric avenue
And then we'll take it higher
Hey, we gonna rock down to electric avenue
And then we'll take it higher
Ohh yeah, higher
(rock it in the daytime
Rock it in the night - repeat until fade)
