Lightning

Lightning, voltage from a thundercloud
My light is so bright and the thunder so loud
Lightning, 36,000 degrees
Striking tall buildings and cooking the trees
Whoa yeah, (Oooh, ooh ooh ooh)
And zapping Benjamin Franklin's keys

Lightning, brighter than a billion lights
Flashes of purples, yellows and whites
Lightning, do a little show for us
Wow, amazing, astounding but dangerous
Whoa yeah, if lightning took out a personal
Ad it must
(Say) "Hello, baby - Minus charge seeking a
Plus

Boom, (boom) Crash (crash)
L-lightning's an electrical flash
Zap, (zap) Zing (zing)
The power of --- lightning

My hair is standing up on end
Well, better crouch on down, my friend
When lightning's near you don't wanna be
The tallest thing in the vicinity
How will I know when lightning's near?
Let me teach you a handy, little trick, my dear

Wait and watch for the lighting flash
Then count the seconds 'til the thunderous crash
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
To figure out how far away the lightning is
I've
Taken those seconds and divided by five

Whoa yeah, 10 divided by 5 is 2 (ooh ooh)
So that means, lightning's 2 miles from you!

Boom, (boom) Crash (crash)
L-lightning's an electrical flash
Zap, (zap) Zing (zing)
The power of --- lightning

Lightning a river of electricity
One of the most amazing, forces of nature
Words fail, but the nomenclature
"Wowie zowie," does allow me
To explain, once again
The sense of awe whence I saw
A flashin' up high, oh my
The most incredible sky I ever will see

Boom, (boom) Crash (crash)
L-lightning's an electrical flash
Zap, (zap) Zing (zing)
The power of
That's the power of
That's the power of--- lightning
