The neon lights go flashing by
Electric Land is in my eyes The underworld is on the move And everybody's got something to prove The taxi driver delivers the news Somebody out there has blown a fuse We're passing the scene a man is dead A thirty eight blew away his head A jolt of lightning set's me back a pace Feel like a visitor from outer space Please excuse me if I don't quite understand I'm just a stranger in Electric Land Willing to have a good time You live for the moment the moment is fine You're up in your room the lights are low Before you know it's time for the show A jolt of lightning set's me back a pace Feel like a visitor from outer space Please excuse me if I don't quite understand I'm just a stranger in Electric Land |

Like a pair of open wings, you bind me,
To a world, I helped you build around me, Our gilded cage has turned into a prison cell, Like a dream when it dies becomes an empty shell. Untie the knot, the hold over me you got Untie the knot, the hold over me you got Like a slave who's bound in chains, a broken man, Like a pain no one could ever understand That's the spark that lights the fire deep inside As long as you ain't no blue in my sky, Untie the knot, the hold over me you got Untie the knot, the hold over me that you got Set me free from these chains, The time has come to rearrange our destiny Untie the knot, the knot, Untie the knot, untie, untie, set me free, set me free. |

A story bout a street girl named Genius
Give herself a name thought it would bring her fame Sang poetry and mime on the street corner line Dancin' to a maze of passers by (chorus) In her blue jeans and her painted face She took your mind through time and space If desire could bring you everything you wanted She woulda had it all a long, long time ago In her mind she was reflecting the society we live in That's enough to make a woman's heart go cold (chorus) In her blue jeans and her painted face She took your mind through time and space Do, do, do, do, do, do, do La,la,la,la,la,la La,la,la,la,la,la La,la,la,la,la,la (chorus) In her blue jeans and her painted face She took your mind through time and space It was a big night and the audience was expected And a ******* as she took the stage And as she began to weave her magic It was spellbound and under up in a **** (chorus) In her blue jeans and her painted face She took your mind through time and space (chorus) Improv |

I'm a downhill ryder; I get the urge that it's time to go Take my cue from my old guitar, that I used to play, Underneath the moon and the stars, 'til the break of day I'm a free flying glider, got my head up in the clouds I'm a free flying glider; I don't ever want to come down Take my cue from the moon and the stars that I used to play, Underneath with my old guitar 'til the break of day, Yeah. All across the nation I can feel a vibration, Let it in your mind, let it shine. Take my cue from the moon and the stars, That I used to play, underneath with my old guitar, 'Til the break of day, all across the nation, I can feel the vibration, let it in your mind, It's going to shine, yes it's going to shine Well I'm a downhill ryder, I'm a down, down, down, down, downhill ryder, Got the wind in my sails; baby I'm a cool man, Down, down, down, downhill ryder, Down, down, down?? |
