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 know 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
