The Free Electric Band - Albert Hammond[00:00:00]

Written by： Albert Hammond/Michael Hazelwood[00:00:02]

My father is a doctor he's a family man[00:00:10]

My mother works for charity[00:00:15]

Whenever she can[00:00:17]

They're both good clean americans[00:00:20]

Who abide by the law[00:00:22]

And they both stick up for liberty[00:00:24]

And they both support the war[00:00:27]

My happiness was paid for when[00:00:29]

They laid their money down[00:00:32]

For summers in a summer camp[00:00:34]

And winters in the town[00:00:37]

My future in the system[00:00:39]

Was talked about and planned[00:00:41]

But I gave it up for music[00:00:44]

And the free electric band[00:00:46]

I went to school in handwashed[00:00:57]

Shirts with neatly ordered hair[00:00:59]

And the school was big and newly built[00:01:02]

And filled with light and air[00:01:05]

And the teachers taught us values that[00:01:07]

We had to learn to keep[00:01:10]

And they'd clip the ear of any idle kid[00:01:12]

Who went to sleep[00:01:15]

My father organised for me a college in the east[00:01:17]

But I went to california[00:01:22]

The sunshine and the beach[00:01:24]

My parents[00:01:27]

And my lecturers could never understand[00:01:27]

Why I gave it up for music[00:01:32]

And the free electric band[00:01:34]

Well they used to sit[00:01:40]

And speculate upon their son's career[00:01:41]

A lawyer or a doctor or a civil engineer[00:01:45]

Just give me bread[00:01:50]

And water[00:01:51]

Put a guitar in my hand[00:01:52]

Cos all I need is music[00:01:55]

And the free electric band[00:01:57]

My father sent me money[00:02:08]

And I spent it very fast[00:02:10]

On a girl I met in berkeley[00:02:13]

In a social science class[00:02:15]

Yes and we learnt about her body[00:02:17]

But her mind we didn't know[00:02:20]

Until deep rooted attitudes[00:02:22]

And morals began to show[00:02:25]

She wanted to get married even though[00:02:27]

She never said[00:02:30]

But I knew her well enough[00:02:32]

By now to see inside her head[00:02:34]

She'd settle for suburbia[00:02:37]

And a little patch of land[00:02:39]

So I gave her up for music[00:02:42]

And the free electric band[00:02:44]

Ooh the free electric band[00:02:52]

So I gave her up for music[00:02:55]

And the free electric band[00:02:57]

So I gave her up for music[00:03:00]

And the free electric band[00:03:02]

So I gave her up for music[00:03:04]

And the free electric band[00:03:07]

So I gave her up for music[00:03:09]

And the free electric band[00:03:12]

So I gave her up for music[00:03:14]

And the free electric band[00:03:16]

So I gave her up for music[00:03:19]
