The neon lights go flashing by
Electric land is in my eyes
The underworld is on the move
And everybody's got something to prove
The taxi driver delivers the news
Somebody out there has blown a fuse
We're passing the scene a man is dead
A thirty eight blew away his head
A jolt of lightning set's me back a pace
Feel like a visitor from outer space
Please excuse me if I don't quite understand
I'm just a stranger in electric land
Willing to have a good time
You live for the moment the moment is fine
You're up in your room the lights are low
Before you know it's time for the show
A jolt of lightning set's me back a pace
Feel like a visitor from outer space
Please excuse me if I don't quite understand
I'm just a stranger in electric land
Electric land is in my eyes
The underworld is on the move
And everybody's got something to prove
The taxi driver delivers the news
Somebody out there has blown a fuse
We're passing the scene a man is dead
A thirty eight blew away his head
A jolt of lightning set's me back a pace
Feel like a visitor from outer space
Please excuse me if I don't quite understand
I'm just a stranger in electric land
Willing to have a good time
You live for the moment the moment is fine
You're up in your room the lights are low
Before you know it's time for the show
A jolt of lightning set's me back a pace
Feel like a visitor from outer space
Please excuse me if I don't quite understand
I'm just a stranger in electric land

"The neon lights go flashing by
Electric land is in my eyes"
- everything looks different, your vision changes
"The underworld is on the move
And everybody's got something to prove"
- besides physical changes, you begin to think differently. you see deeper meaning to everything somebody does or says
- the next verse is about a taxi driver and a dead body; reality, yet it doesn't seem to touch you in the same way as usually
"A jolt of lightning set's me back a pace
Feel like a visitor from outer space
Please excuse me if I don't quite understand
I'm just a stranger in electric land"
- he's just a stranger, in a world that until some time ago, he lived in as well. he sees the world in different eyes
"Willing to have a good time
You live for the moment the moment is fine
You're up in your room the lights are low
Before you know it's time for the show"
- feeling good backstage, yet as long as it lasts, when you're interrupted, it feels like it was too short - time for the show
