The Body Electric
May 12th, 2008
Illustration Friday - When I saw this week’s theme “Electricity” the first thing I thought of was the song “The Body Electric” from the movie Fame. I’ve always like the words to that song.
I couldn’t embed the YouTube video for some reason. But if you’ve never heard the song…here it is The Body Electric on YouTube.
I sing the body electric
I celebrate the me yet to come
I toast to my own reunion
When I become one with the sun
And I’ll look back on Venus
I’ll look back on Mars
And I’ll burn with the fire of ten million stars
And in time
And in time
We will all be stars
I sing the body electric
I glory in the glow of rebirth
Creating my own tomorrow
When I shall embody the earth
And I’ll serenade Venus
I’ll serenade Mars
And I’ll burn with the fire of ten million stars
And in time
And in time
We will all be stars
We are the emperors now
And we are the czars
And in time
And in time
We will all be stars
