Electricity

I'll wait for you by the wall

When the world has gone to sleep.

We'll take a trip into town

And we'll pass down every street

And run between the little pools of light

Cast by the street lamps that rule it all

And burn so slow with their golden glow

That stains the mist and soaks the walls.

Tucked inside the folds of endless night we'll find

Our own path towards our secret task.

Neon signs designed for swarming flies,

We'll skip right inside the heart of ticking time.

We'll find what we believe

Beyond our own superiority

And attend every party and see

If they are all they are supposed to be.

Lights flickering perpetually,

You got loudspeakers speaking easily,

You got electricity.

True statements being thrown out

But the information's being passed around,

You got electricity.

Cold reflections just can't compete

Now the moon is well and truly obsolete,

You got electricity.

Information's being thrown out

But the message is still getting around,

You got electricity.
