Electric Eel Lyrics by Wesley Willis

Rush Hour

1999

God struck me down
He did it to me because I was playing with him
That teaches me a lesson: not to do it again

[Chorus]
Electric eel
Electric eel
Electric eel
Electric eel

John Dillinger got killed in 1930
He was assassinated for trying to rob a bank
He was carrying a gun

[Chorus]
Electric eel
Electric eel
Electric eel
Electric eel

John Pole got mad at me and hit me with a tire iron
He was so pissed off at me
He pulled out his tack and gave me the shock of my life

[Chorus]
Electric eel
Electric eel
Electric eel
Electric eel

Rock over London
Rock on, Chicago
Mitsubishi - The word is getting around
