Jimmy Carter - Lyrics - Electric Six

Electric Six is a six-piece band from Detroit, Michigan. Their style has been described as a brand of rock music infused with elements of "Garage, disco, punk rock, new wave, and metal." The band met recognition in 2003 with the singles "Danger! High Voltage" and "Gay Bar", and subsequently recorded ten full-length albums: Fire, SeÃ±or Smoke, Switzerland, I Shall Exterminate Everything Around Me That Restricts Me from Being the Master, Flashy, KILL, Zodiac, Heartbeats and Brainwaves, Mustang and Human Zoo. They have also released a rarities album, Sexy Trash, and a live album entitled Absolute Pleasure. A live DVD, funded via Kickstarter, called Absolute Treasure was released for download in February 2014. Dick Valentine also announced on the Mustang tour that a new album was in the works.

Like Jimmy Carter, like electric underwear Like any idea that never had a chance to go anywhere This is who you are Hey, celebrity who drives off a bridge in a car Your beautiful body filling up with water Like Harry Truman dropping bombs out of the air Like any self-respecting multi-billionaire This is who you are Five dancing teenage boys who sing their way into our hearts Backstreet's back, all right And there's a toxic cloud hanging over her And there's white noise on the screen And there's a man in a hotel room assaulting a maid who just came to clean Up the mess Backstreet's back, all right Like Ronald Reagan falling asleep forevermore Dreaming of horses and dreaming of nuclear war This is where we are tonight Everybody under surveillance from a satellite You can be the first one on your block to die And there's a plague of locusts upon us And there's a nightmare in the swarm And there's a lion out in the desert slouching towards Bethelhem to be born ... again Backstreet's back all right, all right
