lyrics

Electric. Electric the air glows it's electric
Blow wind spread the message blow

SET SAIL Over bridges over buildings over people
Light up the night real bright

Kinetic. Kinetic. come on people It's kinetic
Flow. come together and flow

LETS WAVE down a taxi hitch a ride on a train
It's bright and The night is alight

The word has hit the town about the
Shivoo getting down
We're spilling out the doors and
filling up the streets Soaking

The light
The speed
The colours
The sounds
The people
The Highs
The Money
The life

Ok Lets go
We navigate with neon signs as high up as the sun.
We disapprove of cigarettes but show off with our guns
andWhen doctors treat our lifestyle we're drinking to our health
'Cos sickness in the life only means a day off work.
we found the secret to success is just to trot in one direction
And to keep our mouths shut at the things we should have mentioned but our conscious carries us away to the land of sleep
'cos a headache's all in your head we just turn our other cheek

And I'm sitting at a table eating a meal for two and
I raised the funds to buy it I wasn't digging up the food
It says the contents of my juice may contain traces of fruit
Now my cleaner uses products with real lemons (I'm confused)
and I'm speeding into solid walls Whoo! I've lost my mind.
But rest assure my computer and phone are doing fine
it's not like I crashed out on error 404
If we can not hack then we'll splash out on some more

People have there hands up
as the money trickles down
Come on and grab a buck or 2
Cause every one is out to catch

The light
The speed
The colours
The sounds
The people
The Highs
The Money
The life

Hurry it's for a limited time only!
