Electric Waterfalls Lyrics

Electric waterfalls fall

I see
Darkness and dreary visions coming forth
I feel
All the electricity turning off
Frightening
All that preside in this land of the lost
Hiding
Souls in an economic holocaust

They say there's a cure for cancer
They say there's a cure for aids
They say they can cure diabetes
In a holistic natural way
But then they'll lose their profits
But then they'll lose their pay
Is this what you call logic
Exposed to the toxic waste

Electric waterfalls fall

I feel
People are moving further from the earth
Fighting
Over the oil much larger than gang turf
I (?)
Change gunna come or will things just get worse
I think
Songs are the good to compensate the hurt

They send em out in rockets
They killed the electric bomb
To keep their wealthy pockets
While 3rd world countries starve
Technology and cell phones
And satellites roam far
Technology expands while
The soul gets small and smallâ?¦

Electric waterfalls fall

Falling down, falling down

They say there's a cure for cancer
They say there's a cure for aids
They say they can treat diabetes
In a holistic natural way
While western world advances
Out Mother Nature calls
Please feed these plants with water
Not electric waterfallsâ?¦.

Electric waterfalls fall

The Gift of Gab (born Tim Parker) is the MC for the California hip-hop duo Blackalicious, and a member of Quannum Projects (along with Chief Xcel, DJ Shadow, Lyrics Born and Lateef). In 2004, he also released a solo album entitled 4th Dimensional Rocketships Going Up.

The name seemingly is taken from the personal quality one is said to attain upon kissing the [1] Blarney Stone. This is also interpreted as someone who can talk the talk and is streetwise and can get through life by the way they speak. This would be associated with bargaining a deal etc.

One of his songs appears on the "Roll forever" skateboarding movie and is used by a skater named Darrell Stanton.

The song 'Rat Race' from 4th Dimensional Rocketships Going Up is frequently used on the highly popular Sky Sports show, Soccer AM.
