To start the war
Everybody in the store was whack

I got so much love,
I don't know where to put it
I feel so good,
I don't know what to do
and I don't mind,
the forces of evil,
if they bring me closer to you.
sugar

Now baby's in the kitchen,
and she's fixin' up supper
she drank all the wine,
and now she's drinkin' some more
she's cuttin' up the chicken
and she's dancin' 'round the fire
she shuffles her feet,
on the linolium floor

she says "we're starting a fire,
electric demons in love"
oh my
we're starting a fire,
electric demons in love
oh my

I went down, to the banks of the river
I went down, and I went for a swim
I went down, and then she pushed me under
and I can't remember what I did
no

now I ain't educated but I sure ain't stupid
and I know what is wrong and I know what is right
don't give your religion or your US government
I met my baby in the darkness of the night

I said I met my baby in the darkness on the night
I met my baby in the darkness on the night
blood on her dress, and
she said you can't believe, everything you see

yeah we're starting a fire,
electric demons in love
we're starting a fire,
electric demons in love
we're starting a fire,
electric demons in love
we're starting a fire,
electric demons in love
we're starting a fire,

Well nobody wants to burn in hell
But everybody's got a soul to sell
When I was young my mama gave me some advice
She said boy don't you know everybody's got a price?

I'll make lots of money, I'll make more money than you
I'll drive around in my limo that's what I was born to do
And I might like you better if we fuck together
If its not to be noted I got somethin' better for ya:

Naked pictures, of your mother
Naked pictures of your mother
Naked pictures, of your mother GO!

So low

I dropped the bomb on Japan
I was a hostage in Iran
I'm the ugly American
Now,  I'm a government man
A government man!

And I'll make lots of money, I'll make more money than you
I'll drive around in my limo that's what I was born to do
And I might like you better if we fuck together
If its not to be noted I got somethin' better for ya:

Naked pictures, of your mother
Naked pictures of your mother

I was born a prisoner in your dungeon of flesh
Oh yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Solitary confinement underneath your dress
Oh yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
But I broke those shackles, I bent those bars
I got out the van and drove away in my car

I got a new girl now
She don't understand me, but she's getting hot now

And she's white (white)
She is so white
she's white like the light
Never like the night
She's white (white)
She's so white
I was born to excite her
She could never be whiter, tonight.

I was born a hunter in your jungle of sin
Oh yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
And our love was a sport, but she'd let me win
Oh yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
And I shot those arrows, I flung those balls
But she returned my fire and shot me in the heart

I got a new girl now
She dont understand me, but she's getting hot now

And she's white (white)
She is so white
She's white like the light
Never like the night
She's white (white)
She is so white
I was born to excite her
She could never be whiter
tonight,
tonight,
Go!

I was born a dancer in your disco of fire
Oh yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
And your love was the rhythm, elevating me higher
Oh yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)
But I scratched that record, I stopped that show
I got on the mic and I let you know

I got a new girl
She's 6 feet tall
I got her number on the wall

And she's white (white)
She's so white
She's white like the light
Never like the night
Shes white (white)
She's so white
I was born to excite her
She could never be whiter
toniiii-iight
toniiii-iight
toniiii-iight

Hey little kitty with your tail dragging on the floor
You could have a following in every town that you go
But you remember what you said to me
That you are nothing without me

Cuz I invented the night
Yeah I invented the night
In my laboratory using lust and lies

Hey little birdie fly until your wings desert you
And when you come down, come down on me cuz you know I will never hurt you
But maybe once or twice I'll ruffle your feathers
Cuz you said we should always be together

Cuz I invented the night
Yeah I invented the night
Mixing elements of the strangest kind

And should your invention be destroyed in a fire
John, it's only Monday
I gave you Tuesday night and Wednesday night and Friday night
The weekend is a sea of electric light
Turn it on

Hey little doggy always looking for a bigger bone
Try to see how many times that you can run away from home
But in the end you always come back to me
Cuz you are nothing without me

Cuz I invented the night
Yeah I invented the night
Mixing elements of the strangest kind

Everybody's doin
What they shouldn't be doin
Everybody's doin it
In the middle of the street
Everybody's movin
What they shouldn't be movin
Everybody's moving it
In the middle of the street

Improper dancing in the middle of the street x3
Somebody better notify the chief of police

Everybody's freakin

Everybody's showin
What they shouldn't be showin

In the middle of the street

Improper dancing in the middle of the street x3
Man those people must have demons livin in their feet

And I want to reach into the fire of your heart
And I want to program all those beats right from the start
Have you ever been to NEW YORK CITY?!

And music starts to play (play)
Bodies start to sway (sway)
Devil is the dj
In the middle of the street
Beats are droppin
Bodies rockin
Hearts are stoppin
Electric shockin
I cant believe what I am seeing
In the middle of the street

Improper dancing in the middle of the street x3
Somebody better notify the chief of police

STOP!

CONTINUE

YES!

I saw fire when I looked in my lover's eyes
Woooaaahhhooo
I saw the devil dressed up in disguise
Woooaaahhhooo
And you know it gets hotter than a microwave oven
When you and I commence the lovin'
And you like what I'm doin'
And I like what I'm doin' to you
And everybody's happy
Happy tonight

I'm a man and I'm torn between vengeance and fashion
Woooaaahhhoooo
And I'm tryin' so hard not to get caught up in the passion
Woooaaahhhooo
And you know that my suit cost more than your house
I'm a scoundrel, a lover, a murderous louse
And I look good in your bed
And you think that I'm lookin' good
And everybody's happy
Happy tonight

She's a girl
and she's got some really crazy ideas, man
Woooaaahhhooo
She wants to push the button and execute this innocent man
Woooaaahhhooo
And you know she's depressed in her wedding dress
She's gonna have her rings removed
And I like the way she's lookin'
Yeah, she's lookin' like a hundred dollars
And everybody's happy
Happy tonight

. . .


Now who elected you judge and jury in the body of a beautiful girl?
And I suspect heavy gerrymandering t the single's bar

And now
I'm a man with conversation skills
and I'm a man with hundred dollar bills
and just a look my direction one time
is all it's gonna take now

Come on

I know you think I'm just another sucker perpetrator
Livin' in the two-one-three
And I don't care what you say about any of that, no
It don't matter to me, and

I see you drivin' the wheel in your fancy car
You're a superstar livin' in the three-one-oh
And I will freak you like you've never been freaked before, now
And I'm ready to go, yeah

Come on now

Three two one I'm the bomb
and I'm ready to go off on your ship
Three two one I'm the bomb
and I'm ready to go off on your ship
Three two one I'm the bomb
and I'm ready to go off
ready to go off, now

Hey girl, when I'm fuckin' you
It's like nothin' else matters.
Maybe we'll reach down between my legs
and ease the seat back.

Three-two-one I'm the bomb
and I'm ready to go off on your ship
Three-two-one I'm the bomb
and I'm ready to go off on your ship
Three-two-one I'm the bomb
and I'm ready to go off on your ship
Three-two-one I'm the bomb
and I'm ready to go off
ready to go off, now

You can shake it all around
You can go up and down
You can lose what you found
But you can't ignore my techno

You can go west or east
Confess your sins to a priest
You can slay the wicked beast
But you can't ignore my techno

You can go to the doctor
You can cough in his face
Infect the whole human race
But you can't ignore my techno

You can laugh, you can cry
You can live, you can die
Spend your days asking why
But you can't ignore my techno

You can trip on my synthesizer
Electronic world for every boy and every girl
You can trip on my synthesizer
In the end, technology unto the world will set us free

Be all that you can be
Just as long as you are free
You were blind and now you see
That which is my techno

You can trip on my synthesizer
Electronic world for every boy and every girl
You can trip on my synthesizer
In the end technology unto the world will set us free

You can trip on my
You can trip on my
You can trip on my
You can trip
You can trip
You can trip on my synthesizer
You can trip on my synthesizer
Let's go
