Electricity Song

Lyrics:
When you're in the dark and you want to see You need, uh . . . electricity, electricity
Flip that switch and what do you get? You get, uh . . . electricity, electricity
Every room can now be lit With just, uh . . . electricity, electricity
Where do you think it all comes from This powerful . . . electricity, electricity
Through high wires to here it comes They're bringing, uh . . . electricity, electricity
 Every building must be wired to use it Uh . . . electricity, electricity
Power plants most all use fire to make it Uh . . . electricity, electricity
Burning fuel and using steam, They generate . . . electricity, electricity
Turn that generator by any means You're making, uh . . . electricity, electricity!
A generator is a machine that contains a powerful magnet that creates a magnetic field.
When wires are rotated rapidly through this field, then a current of electricity is produced. Now, if we only had a superhero who could stand here and turn the generator real fast, then we wouldn't need to burn so much fuel to make . . . electricity
Benjamin Franklin flying his kite Was searching for . . . electricity, electricity
He knew that it had something to do with lightning It's all, uh . . . electricity, electricity
Rubbing a comb with wool or fur will give you a charge of electricity, (static) electricity
Stroking a cat to make it purr, you're building up static electricity, electricity Electricity at rest is called static electricity Like in the winter, wearing a heavy coat You get a shock off the doorknob Or you scrape across a carpet And sneak up on your very best friend And zap him on the ear with a shock of - Electricity, electricity Current flowing to and fro, makes a circuit of Electricity, electricity Voltage is the pressure that makes it go. It's pushing, uh . . . electricity, electricity
Watts will tell you just how much
You'll be using Uh . . . electricity, electricity
Powerful stuff, so watch that plug! It's potent Electricity, electricity Electricity, electricity
