Electric Lady
Tesla Boy愀 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Soul, soul needs more
I need your touch you're electrical girl
My mind is breaking the ties
Of your supernatural type

Your pulse my pulse are synchronized
We are synchronized
I wanna make love with you all night

Let, let it go
I want to crack you and get to the core
Why don't we start to reveal
Our forced superpassional thrill

Your pulse my pulse are synchronized
We are synchronized





I wanna make love with you all night

Pharrell is underrated?

I say he is overrated.

Don't get me wrong, Iike several of his tracks, but he is hardly a substance over style "artist."

And, his misogynistic and creepy Harvey Weinstein love letter called Blurred Lines...... yeah...... anyone that willingly, casually makes a dance hall track for date rapists is a litttttttttttle questionable as a human being to me.

It would be like me making a KKK love letter and then acting like I had no idea what I had done.

Pharrell is a performer, not an artist - and he has some Bill Cosby criminality towards women in him.

No means no.

Ooh, you shock it, shake it, baby
Electric lady you're a star
You got a classic kind of crazy
But you know just who you are
You got the look the Gods agree they wanna see
All the birds and the bees
Dancing with the freaks in the trees
And watch the water turn to wine
Outer space and out your mind
Ooh shock me one good time
Electric Lady, get way down
Cause tonight we gon' do what we wanna do
Lady, get way down
Cause tonight we gon' do what we wanna do
Lady
Electric Lady
Yeah, I'll reprogram your mind
My spaceship leaves at 10
I'm where I wanna be, just you and me
Baby talking on the side, as the world spins around
Can you feel your spine unwind
Watch the water turn to wine
Ooh shock it one good time
Electric Lady, get way down
Cause tonight we gon' do what we wanna do
Lady, get way down
Cause tonight we gon' do what we wanna do
Gloss on her lips
Glass on the ceiling
All the girls showin' love
While the boys be catchin' feelings
Once you see her face, her eyes you'll remember
And she'll have you falling harder than a Sunday in September
Whether in Savannah, Kansas or in Atlanta
She'll walk in any room have you raising up your antennas
She can fly you straight to the moon or to the ghettos
Wearing tennis shoes or in flats or in stilettos
Illuminating all that she touches, eye on the sparrow
A modern day Joan of Arc or Mia Farrow
Classy, Sassy, put you in a razzy bazzy
Her magnetic energy will have you coming home like Lassie
Saying "ooh shock it, break it, baby"
Electro, sofista, funky, lady
We the kind of girls who ain't afraid to get down
Electric ladies go on and scream out loud
Electric Lady, get way down
Cause tonight we gon' do what we wanna do
Lady, get way down
Cause tonight we gon' do what we wanna do
Ooh, shock it, break it, baby, Electric Lady, Electric Lady
Ooh, shock it, break it, baby, Electric Lady, Electric Lady
Ooh, shock it, break it, baby, Electric Lady, Electric Lady
Ooh, shock it, break it, baby, Electric Lady, Electric Lady
Ooh, shock it, break it, baby, Electric Lady, Electric Lady
Ooh, shock it, break it, baby, Electric Lady, Electric Lady
Ooh, shock it, break it, baby, Electric Lady, Electric Lady
Ooh, shock it, break it, baby, Electric Lady, Electric Lady

This was my daughter's favorite song; Janelle Monae was her favorite female artist. I played this song at her memorial service. RIP Quintessence, gone but not forgotten.
