• Body Electric

Through the cables and the underground now
The faceless breathless calls
This is Babel, sensurround now
This place is death with walls
This place is death with walls
This place is death with walls
This place is death with walls

Too much contact, no more feeling
The Sound around them all
Acid on the floor so she walk on the ceiling
And the body electric flashes on the bathroom wall
And the body electric flashes on the bathroom wall

Crawling to the corners where the idiot children call
See the body flashing on the bathroom wall

This song is apparently about the Bar Phono club in Leeds, formerly Le Phonographique. It's a famous "goth" venue, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that Eldritch would deride it.

The title is taken from Walt Whitman's poem I Sing The Body Electric:
