Lyrics:

Boy!

Boy!


Verse 1:

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


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


Verse 2:

Workin' so hard like a soldier

Can't afford a thing on TV

Deep in my heart I am warrior

Can't get food for the kid, good God


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


Oh no...

Oh no...

Oh no...

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


Verse 3:

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


Bridge:

Ho! Out in the street...

Out in the street...

Out in the daytime...

Out in the night...


Chorus:

Oh! We gonna rock down to Electric Avenue

And then we'll take it higher

OOh no, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue

And then we'll take it higher


Bridge:

Out in the street...

Out in the street...

Out in the playground...

In the dark side of town (HO!)


Chorus:

We gonna rock down to Electric Avenue

And then we'll take it higher

Hey, we gonna rock down to Electric Avenue

And then we'll take it higher


Outro:

Rock it in the daytime

Rock it in the night

Rock it eeh-dum-pum-pay

Oooh, in the brixton riot
