Boy (boy, boy)
Boy (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) 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
Workin' so hard like a soldier
Can't afford a thing on TV
Deep in my heart, I abhor ya
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 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
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
Oh, out in the street
Out in the street
Out in the daytime
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
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
(Oh, yeah) and then we'll take it higher
(Rock it in the daytime) we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue
(Rock it in the night) and then we'll take it higher (Electric Avenue)
(Rock it in Miami, mama, meh) we gonna rock down to (Electric Avenue)
(Whoa in a Brixton) and then we'll take it higher (Electric Avenue)
