"Got Shocked" lyrics

"Got Shocked"

I got shocked 'cause the room was on two different circuits
First I felt the thunder then blacked out at band practice

I'm told that I screamed and stood up
Then I sat down and wept after the amp got unplugged

You never ask for anything
The racecar driver died on TV
I ran like hell into the burning house
It'd been too long since I had felt the sting

Hot breath looming off the grill of a truck
Your long legs hold you up like two big machine guns

Cricket jumped behind the fridge
It stayed there for two days
The envy sometimes gets to me
It's never sacred rage

You never ask for anything
