"Make a song about a broken electrical socket; that seems like something you'd do."
-theycallmeMrGrr

lyrics

if you churn out power day after day you're bound to get some wear
but now i sit, no tv, as i just sit and stare
i just think that sure
you tried your best
and sure
you passed the test
and sure
you did your job but now you fail me now you leave me

----
CHORUS
stranded
without the power
stranded
the power that i need
to do the things i always do
the tv and the lights
all the power's gone
and everything's gone wrong
oh
why do fuses
why do fuses die
----

now i need to get a replacement but i don't know how
will you help me
help me buy and fit a new one
one without a fuse
for now i know that they are trouble
they will only fail
they will only burn and stop conducting i'll be


now i have a new socket and everything is fine
the tv's claim
is that stormy storms are coming
and that i should expect rain
and lightning and some other things as well
well that's just fine
i can sit inside and watch my tv-
wait, no-

----
CHORUS
