I Need Electricity
The car brakes squeal, round the corner in the night
A radio is blaring through the window of the basement floor
The old woman's startled, stack of plates fall to the ground
Her man starts bitching 'bout the price of just sticking around
And hear you screaming down the telephone line
As the kids next door get in a fight
And the dogs are howling on the corner lot
'Cuz they're scared of the cold starlight
And yeah, I hear you coming over the phone
So don't think me impolite
But I need electricity tonight
I need electricity, I need electricity
I need electricity tonight
The front door slams, in the apartment down the hall
The pitter patter footsteps keep pacing up and down the stairs
A siren is shrieking, energy's in the air
I gotta get out of this cage and get somewhere
And I hear you screaming down the telephone line
'Bout the times I let you down
The time I forgot to pick you up
'Cuz I got tied up downtown
And yeah, I hear you coming over the phone
So don't think me impolite
But I need electricity tonight
I need electricity, I need electricity
I need electricity tonight
A radio is blaring through the window of the basement floor
The old woman's startled, stack of plates fall to the ground
Her man starts bitching 'bout the price of just sticking around
And hear you screaming down the telephone line
As the kids next door get in a fight
And the dogs are howling on the corner lot
'Cuz they're scared of the cold starlight
And yeah, I hear you coming over the phone
So don't think me impolite
But I need electricity tonight
I need electricity, I need electricity
I need electricity tonight
The front door slams, in the apartment down the hall
The pitter patter footsteps keep pacing up and down the stairs
A siren is shrieking, energy's in the air
I gotta get out of this cage and get somewhere
And I hear you screaming down the telephone line
'Bout the times I let you down
The time I forgot to pick you up
'Cuz I got tied up downtown
And yeah, I hear you coming over the phone
So don't think me impolite
But I need electricity tonight
I need electricity, I need electricity
I need electricity tonight
