Hi I'm Tizzer
From good old Gloucester
Like Meteors,Cramps,Frenzy,Escalators etc
Was introduced to this stuff by a couple of my mates in the 80's
Love this stuff and so do my kids now!
The thing I'd like most is the lyrics for 'Electro' and to remember the bloody t-shirt I had with the Eiffel tower being destroyed by a big green bloke(think it was a meteors shirt,wore it to death)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!! |

somewhere in the world there is a man
the police would like to find him if they can
well he never really did anything wrong
but he was different so they'd hound him just to get along
one day this man he couldn't take no more
his mind snapped and he set out for war
he'd hidden his power no longer
why should he when he knew he was the stronger
he is electro, the electric man, they didn't know what trouble they'd begun
with electro, the electric man, sixty thousand volts out of his fingertips would have them on the run
no-one knew just why he was this strong
though he wasn't bad he would be from now on
they'd bitten off more than they could chew
just how strong electro was nobody really knew
but electro, the electric man, flashed thunderbolts of power from his eyes
he'd go straight through the police van, and melted (something) was running down the side
the army/airforce managed to track him down
in the battle electro levelled six miles of london town
suddenly his power began to drain
in a blinding flash he disappeared screaming i'll be back again
i'm electro, the electric man, you should've left me alone to hide away
i'm electro, the electric man, i'll charge up and i'll be back someday
-----------------------------------------
that's about it. there's a wee bit I missed in the second chorus - for the life of me I can't make it out - but perhaps one of the other members can understand it. |
