Electra - Phoebe Snow

She loved a man who was sweet and lean

With a Madison Avenue scar

And wherever he went to get away

He took their luxury car

Where can you run

When the old house shakes

And it’s too hot to make any plans

The sidewalks crack, and the whole world quakes

'Cause you know that you chose the wrong man

Electra, the spirits tease

High up a bluff

And down on her knees

She’s looking down

At kingdom come

Come back Electra

Don’t jump, don’t jump!

With a camera, he caught the mood

When a pen he caught what she thought

And everything worth having he mistook

For something you bought

Where can you run

When the old house shakes

And it’s too hot to make any plans

The sidewalks crack, and the whole world quakes

'Cause you know that you chose the wrong man

Repeat Chorus:
