And all I see is little dots Some are smeared and some are spots Feels like a murder but that's alright Somebody said there's too much light Pull down the shade and it's alright It'll be over in a minute or two. I'm charged up...Don't put me down Don't feel like talking...Don't mess around I feel mean...I feel O.K. I'm charged up...Electricity The boys are making a big mess This makes the girls all start to laugh I don't know what they're talking about The boys are worried, the girls are shocked They pick the sound and let it drop Nobody know what they're talking about I'm charged up...I'm kinda wooden I'm barely moving...I study motion I study myself...I fooled myself I'm charged up...It's pretty intense. I'm charged up...Don't put me down Don't feel like talking...Don't mess around I feel mean...I feel O.K. I'm charged up...Electricity.

You need to get the 2-disc set they released recently.
The Name of this Band is Talking Heads
It's a reissue of a live album put out in 82...amazing. I'm listening to it right now.

It's so cool, cause the first disc is songs culled from their '77-'79 tours, and the second disc is comprised of songs from '80-'81 and you can totally hear how the band's live sound evolves...sooo psychedelic. And some of the songs are on both CD's and you hear them performed pretty differently, it's sweet, like 2 versions of Psycho Killer.

I never was a hardcore Talking Heads fan, but I noticed while I listened to thier music high..it all made sence, David Byrne does trip and discovered things from it...so it seems... BTW I never heard of the song, I want to look into them more...that band was popular when I was a early teenager..

No problem...on that 2 disc set, this song is on each CD. On the first CD it's called Electricity (Drugs) and on the second disc it's called Drugs (Electricity)...I keep listening to both.
