Electric City Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Intro

Lights Electrify us, our sense's are numb,
The future is unclear, the damage is done,
I'm so blinded by everything we've ever done done,

Electric city,
Electric city's alive.

Verse-1

Light up, electric city, light up......
This night is on, the lights are on.
Wake up, your feeling pretty,
Wake up before the feeling gone........
Weve just begun.

Chorus-2

Lights Electrify us, our sense's are numb,
The future is unclear the damage is done,
I'm so blinded by everything we've ever done done,
Electric city,
Electric city's alive.

Verse-2

Shine on your electric city, shine on.....
Your time has come to burn like the sun.

Chorus-3

Lights Electrify us, our sense's are numb,
The future is unclear the damage is done,
I'm so blinded by everything we've ever done done,





Electric city, Electric city's alive.
Electric city, Electric city's alive.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Electric City's song "Electric City" paints a picture of a city that is alive with electricity. The intro sets the tone for the song by making reference to the electrifying properties of light, and how it can numb the senses. It also sheds light on the ambiguity and uncertainty of the future, where the damage has already been done. The repetition of "done done" leaves an impression of something that is beyond repair, or at least that's how the singer feels.


The chorus is where the title of the song comes into play. Electric City is alive, and the light that electrifies it all also numbs the senses, Making it a kind of double-edged sword. The singer is blinded by everything that has happened in Electric City, and the future is uncertain. The second verse reinforces the idea that the city is alive with electricity and that its time has come to burn like the sun. The chorus repeats twice, highlighting the message that the future is unclear, the damage has been done, and Electric City is alive.

Sittin’ in my office with a plate of grilled bacon,
Call my man Dwight just to see what was shakin’

Yo Mike, our town is dope and pretty
So check out how we live in the Electric City!

They call it Scranton
What?
The Electric City
Scranton
What?
The Electric City

Lazy Scranton the Electric City
They call it that ’cause of the electricity

The city’s laid out from east to west
And our public parks and libraries are truly the best

Call poison control if you’re bit by a spider
But check that it’s covered by your health care provider!

Plenty of space in the parking lot,
But the little cars go in the compact spot
Spot, spot, spot, spot …

Snack attack time, don’t lose your head
We like Cugino’s for the tasty bread

They call it Scranton
What?
The Electric City
Scranton
What?
The Electric City

The Electric City
