Now 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

We gonna rock down to Electric Avenue

And then we'll take it higher
we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue
And then we'll take it higher


Workin' so hard like a soldier
And can't afford a thing on TV

Deep in my heart, I'm a warrior
And can't get food for them kids, 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..


We gonna rock down to Electric Avenue
And then we'll take it higher

We gonna rock down to Electric Avenue
And then we'll take it higher


Who is to blame in one country




You never can get to the one
Dealin' in multiplication

And you konw you never can to feed everyone, oh no

We gonna rock down to Electric Avenue

And then we'll take it higher
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 daytime...
Out in the night...


We gonna rock down to Electric Avenue
And then we'll take it higher
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..


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
