Boy
BoyDown 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 noWe 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 higherWorkin' so hard like a soldier
Can't afford a thing on TV
Deep in my heart I'm a warrior
Can't get food for them kid, good GodWe 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 higherOh no
Oh no
Oh no
Oh noWho is to blame in one country
Never can get to the one
Dealin' in multiplication
And they still can't feed everyone, oh noWe 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 higherOut in the street
Out in the street
Out in the daytime
Out in the nightWe 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 higherOut in the street
Out in the street
Out in the playground
In the dark side of townWe 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 higherWe gonna rock down to Electric Avenue
And then we'll take it higher, Electric Avenue
We gonna rock down to Electric Avenue
And then we'll take it higher, Electric Avenue
