lyrics
Electrical Reasons
she had electrical reasons, she had electrical fears
she had electrical seasons, she had electrical years
I didn’t know what was comin when she said,
“honey, welcome to my world”
oh my baby, my baby girl
she had electrical friends and electrical fans
she didn’t follow the trends, she never got with the plan
she was my favorite obsession, a little mystery to unfurl
oh my baby, my baby girl
don’t matter to her if she can’t sing, she’s gonna sing it anyway
don’t matter to her what you all think, she’s gonna blow you all away
what matters to her ain’t of this earth, it comes from far away
electricity, it’s a mystery
she had electrical poise, she had electrical cool
she didn’t bother with boys, yeah she was nobody’s fool
I sang the body electric as she moved me slowly under hers
oh my baby, my baby girl
don’t matter to her if she can’t sing, she’s gonna sing it anyway
don’t matter to her what you all think, she’s gonna blow you all away
what matters to her ain’t of this earth, it comes from far away
electricity, it’s a mystery
she had electrical towers, she built electrical dams
fifty megawatt hours in the palms of her hands
she never mentioned the wires I noticed growin out of her
oh my baby, my baby girl
don’t matter to her if she can’t sing, she’s gonna sing it anyway
don’t matter to her what you all think, she’s gonna blow you all away
what matters to her ain’t of this earth, it comes from far away
electricity, it’s a mystery
electricity, it’s a mystery, it comes from far away
electricity, electricity, she’s gonna blow you all away
electricity, electricity
electricity, it’s a mystery
