Monday morning, subway station Pushers pushing, racers racing Came the message on the station The power's out across the nation And, ladies and gentleman it seems we've got a problem The man on my screen said, just as somebody shot him And the mothers gasped, the children cried Almost could not believe my eyes
The power's out And no one can save us No one can blame us now That the power's out
It was pouring like a movie Every stranger looked like they knew me Handsome cowboys praying, Gothic Said: I just remembered being happy And ladies and gentleman, do remember me smiling The queer on the train said as she jumped off the platform And some blind folks held the police, crying I swear to you I would not lie
The power's out And no one can save us No one can blame us now That the power's out And no one can save us No one can blame us now That the power's out That's why I never came home
