Electric Guitar

(album: Fear Of Music - 1979)

Electric guitar is run over
By a car on the highway

This is a crime against the state
This is the meaning of life

Tune this electric guitar
Tune this electric guitar
T-tune this electric guitar
Tune this electric guitar

Electric guitar
Is brought in to a court of law
Judge and the jury
Twelve members of the jury
All listening to records

Is this is a crime against the state?
Ah, this is the verdict they reach

Never listen to electric guitar
Never listen to electric guitar
Never listen to electric guitar
Never listen to electric guitar

Electric guitar is copied
Copy sounds better
Call this law of justice, call this freedom and liberty
I thought I'd perjure myself right in front of the jury

Is this a crime against the state?
No, this is the verdict they reach

Someone controls electric guitar
Someone controls electric guitar
Someone controls electric guitar
Someone controls electric guitar
