Earthed to the Ground - Hawkwind

Delicate, slimline, sturdy wood

Got my hi-fi, as I should

Video cassette is what I need

Record my favourite programs on TV

Separate slider, tone control

Extra speaker with bass and roll

Audio spectrum, sonic swirl

Computer next with buttons to twirl

Super giant TV screen

Then a camera to take pictures of me

I get my girlfriend to come round

To freak her out with raucus sounds

My automatic camera then will spy

As on the bed now we would lie

Educational programmes flash on the screen

Where moments before, we had been

I’m wired up for sound

I’m earthed to the ground

I’m wired up for sound

I’m earthed to the ground…

I have good news

A Prince has been born and some say he will be King.

I told them it was a boy instead of telling them the truth that it was a girl.

Only a few people know

Let me propose a toast to Silverland and its new King (laughter).
