Go!!

1, 2, 3, a song about 'lectricity because it powers our lives, makes it possible for us to thrive. Because it powers our lives, makes it possible for us to thrive.

Oh, 4, 5, 6, volts of potential difference makes electrons go round if the circuit is complete and sound. Circuit's closed.

Voltage! There! Current flows! Power everywhere! We use AC, in factories and homes because we can transform it. High voltage transmits with lower loss, but low voltage is best for safety.

I said, what is electricity? Well, so, 1, 2, 3, a song about 'lectricity because it powers our lives, makes it possible for us to thrive. Because it powers our lives, makes it possible for us to thrive.

Oh, 4, 5, 6, volts of potential difference makes electrons go round if the circuit is complete and sound. Heat makes steam, turns turbines, and a magnet in coils of wires.

We use AC in factories and homes because we can transform it. High voltage transmits with lower loss, but low voltage is best for safety.

I said, what is electricity? Oh yeah, oh yeah, c'mon! How'd it be no energy of the electrical persuasion? I know we'd have no computers, no internet, or mobile phones, yeah!

Powers the world, makes the world, we need electricity, yeah!
