lyrics

She said: Something shocked me
I almost lost my head
was going down on Gary but Indiana wants me dead

I got no sins to repent
Oh, it's electroshock instead?
With all your common decency
No recent converts, you said?

Cuz what to you is a vice
you see, to us that's a life
And if you want indecent, Pence
We'll show you a pervert!

She's Electric! Try and blow her mind
She's electric! She'll blow yours next time
Hear that Mike? Wanna shock, just try
She's Electric! She'll blow your mind

She brought a white picket sign
to your white picket fence
She says your white wash virtues
lack some real common sense

From her mega watt lips
to her fruit flies on Grand
She warned'em, watch your brains
and she shocked'em with a stand

The slapdash bootstrap lace up routine
of a gutter prophet
finger socket shocking
street queen
She's Electric!

Don't need your highwire trip down memory lame
or your small-minded, tunnel-vision, biblical shame
Get it crystal clear, cleaver, she am sho she am
and your shock-treated crusade is a biblical shame

She's a God, a Queen, and your worst dream
in that order
the more you try to change her
the more you embold her
the more you try to change us
the more you embold her

SHE'S ELECTRIC!
