Oy! Oy!
  Out in the streets there is violence and can't get food for the kid
  No place to hang up the washing, can't blame it all on the sun
  Oh no, we're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue and then we'll take it higher
  We're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue and then we'll take it higher
  
  Working so hard like a soldier, can't afford the things on TV
  Deep in my heart, I abhor you, can't get food for the kid
  Good God, we're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue and then we'll take it higher
  We're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue and then we'll take it higher
  Oh no! Oh no! Oh no!
  
  Out in the streets, out in the streets
  Out in the daytime on the dark side of town
  We're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue and then we'll take it higher
  We're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue and then we'll take it higher
  
  Good God, we're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue and then we'll take it higher
  We're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue and then we'll take it higher
  We're gonna rock down to Electric Avenue and then we'll take it higher
  Out in the streets!
