David ByrneAbout
Byrne embodies someone trying to perpetuate the idea that either rock music isn’t legitimate music or is harmful music; an idea that was common among the conservative folk of the 1950s and early 60s, those times being the dawn of rock and roll and the use of electric guitars.
Electric Guitar Lyrics
[Intro]
Electric guitar is run over
By a car on the highway
[Pre-Chorus 1]
This is a crime against the state
This is the meaning of life
[Chrous 1]
Tune this electric guitar
Tune this electric guitar
T-tune this electric guitar
Tune this electric guitar
[Verse 1]
Electric guitar
Is brought in to a court of law
Judge and the jury
Twelve members of the jury
All listening to records
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Is this is a crime against the state?
Ah, this is the verdict they reach
[Chrous 2]
Never listen to electric guitar
Never listen to electric guitar
Never listen to electric guitar
Never listen to electric guitar
[Verse 2]
Electric guitar is copied
Copy sounds better
Call this law of justice, call this freedom and liberty
I thought I'd perjure myself right in front of the jury
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Is this a crime against the state?
No, this is the verdict they reach
[Chorus 3]
Someone controls electric guitar
Someone controls electric guitar
Someone controls electric guitar
Someone controls electric guitar
