Electric Avenue - Eddy Grant

Down in the street there is violence

And a lots of work to be done

No place to hang out our washing

And I can’t blame all on the sun, oh no CHORUS:

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’m a warrior

Can’t get food for them kid, good God

CHORUS

Oh no…

Oh no…

Oh no…

Oh no…

CHORUS

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 CHORUS

Out in the street…

Out in the street…

Out in the playground…

In the dark side of town…

CHORUS

Rock it in the daytime

Rock it in the night …
