lyrics
--Electric Cicadas--
There's lightning in the distance and thunder coming soon
Come on, wave goodbye to this delightful afternoon
Now, I'd know that buzzing anywhere, that gentle humming sound
And these electric cicadas got me down
These electric cicadas got me down
The sun is getting far too bright, radio's getting loud
I'd like to stop and catch my breath but every room's a crowd
Now, it's all so indescribable, these new thoughts that I've found
And these electric cicadas got me down
These electric cicadas got me down
I see your hands are shaking, babe, I guess this one's your first
You say it's 'cause you love me and that only makes it worse
And pretty soon you're a psychologist, a doctor and a clown
And these electric cicadas got me down
These electric cicadas got me down
These electric cicadas
Ooh, they got me down
They got me down
They got me down
Oh, no, no, no, no, no no
I think we're in the clear now, that lightning's come and gone
So why do I feel nervous when you tell me nothing's wrong
Now, will someone call the bomb squad in and say which wire's ground
'Cause these electric cicadas got me down
These electric cicadas got me down
These electric cicadas
Ooh, they got me down
They got me down
They got me down
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no
