Beastie Boys - Electrify Lyrics

Electrify
Electrify
Electrify

Words comin' forth like water from the tap
Clap track line the spaces, places, papers, people stack
Back track through the minutes when the thoughts went insane
I pulled the picture off the cover and blew out the mind games

And people say, this is the play list of the void not found
But I can say, this is the plainness of the peace I've found
It's not the sorrow or the pity that we hope to dismantle
It's just the cast of past life, lighting both ends of the candles
Scandelescent in the means, I have dreamed on the schemes
Reunited in the times of such picturesque scenes

Can I get a witness to testify?
Open your eyes, realize, electrify

Electrify
Electrify
Electrify

So I plan and I scam and write it off on my taxes
It's times like these I've just gone with the decisions of the masses
And to the crowds who've come before with their profit massing ways
I took to the greed that fucked it up and brought it down to today

With pain I stand sane and remain holding strong
Whilst all around me, those who clowned me
Are now drowning by the throngs
Its illogical, the actions that are typically displayed
A set back ain't all that much problem to invade

So I will glow like a lantern on a new moon night
I'll fight violence with these hands that weren't built to fight
But like a furnace burning coal, my goals are bound to burn in flames
Whether achieved or dismantled by the agendas displayed

Can I get a witness to testify?
Open your eyes, realize, electrify

Electrify
Electrify
Electrify
