orchestral manoeuvres in the dark - electricity (factory records version) lyrics

lyrics & music by: bob dorough
performed by: zachary sanders
when you’re in the dark and you want to see,
you need uh … electricity, electricity

flip that switch and what do you get?
you get uh … electricity, electricity
every room can now be lit
with just uh … electricity, electricity

where do you think it all comes from
this powerful … electricity, electricity
through high wires to here it comes,
they’re bringing uh … electricity, electricity

every building must be wired to use it,
uh … electricity, electricity
power plants most all use fire to make it,
uh … electricity, electricity
burnin’fuel and usin’ steam,
they generate … electricity, electricity
turn that generator by any means,
you’re making uh … electricity, electricity
a generator is a machine that contains a powerful
magnet
that creates a magnetic field. when wires are
rotated rapidly
through this field then a current of electricity is
produced.
now, if we only had a superhero who could stand
here and turn
the generator real fast, then we wouldn’t need to

burn so much fuel to make … electricity.
benjamin franklin flying his kite
was searching for … electricity, electricity.
he knew that it had somethin’to do with lightnin’,
it’s all uh … electricity, electricity.
rubbin’ a comb with wool or fur will give you a
charge of
electricity (static) electricity
strokin’ a cat to make it purr, you’re buildin’ up
static
electricity, electricity
electricity at rest is called static electricity.
like in the winter wearing a heavy coat,
you get a shock off the doorkn-b.
or you scr-pe across a carpet
and sneak up on your very best friend,
and zap ‘im on the ear with a shock of-
electricity, electricity
current flowing to and fro, makes a circuit of
electricity, electricity.
voltage is the pressure that makes it go.
it’s pushin’ uh … electricity, electricity …
watts will tell you just how much
you’ll be usin’
uh … electricity, electricity.
powerful stuff, so watch that plug! it’s potent
electricity, electricity.
electricity, electricity.
