Daylight come

Daylight go

How far will it reach?

Ain't nobody know

When the dawn breaks

The cradle will fall

And down come, baby

Cradle and all

Now, I know you need the dark

Just as much as the sun

But you signin' on forever

When you ink it in blood

A. E. I. O. U., E. I. O. U., A. E. I.O.U.I

I use the state of the art

Tech-nology

Supposed to make for better living

But are we better human beings?

We've got out wires all crossed

Our tubes are all tied

And I'm straining to remember

Just what it means to be alive

A life worth living

Now, you can feel it in your chest

Buildin' like little bullets

Just building up the nest

And you build it up strong

And you fill it up with love

And you pray for good rain

All from the lord above

A. E. I. O. U., E. I. O. U., A. E. I

I use my state of the art

Tech-nology

Now, don't you forget it

It ain't using me

'Cause when the power goes out

I got other means

'Cause the power's goin' out

I hear the power's goin' out

I mean it, the power's goin' out

I really mean it the powers goin' out
