Electric Blood

Not sleeping for yearning nor zoning away I’m living for contact but faking OK You’re not the type to be tied to a post It’s freedom to shine that you love the most The fire in my blood it’s burning my face I want you up close so close I can taste

But you think you need a hike today A day off up above the haze You got a good friend who stars in boots I guess you both are in cahoots So I’ll slave away to keep my heart at bay It’s pumpin’ electric blood

When you come over you laugh and you punch You say how’s it going like you really are chuffed You want us go and join up with the crowd No time to wait hey let’s get there right now But the fire in my blood it’s burning my face I want you up close so close I can taste

You got them eating out of your hand Hungry seagulls on the sand You’re on your pill box making a speech They fall down laughing at your feet So I’ll slave away to keep my heart at bay It’s pumpin’ electric blood

Electric blood it burns - never gonna get to rest Can’t put it into words - can’t get it off my chest Won’t let you know - how low I go Waiting here in the wings - livin’ with electric blood Yes you think . . . .
