Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark Electricity
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 doorknob. Or you scrape 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.
