Music Monday: Electric Worry by Clutch

Music Monday is a meme that was created by Drew from The Tattooed Book Geek. Bjørn and I will pick a song alternatively on each Monday and share our thoughts about them. Timy’s pick this week is Electric Worry by Clutch.

I had 2 earworms in the last 2 days, but since one of them is a Hungarian song no one would appreciate, that leaves me with Electric Worry by Clutch. I woke up with “Vamanos, vamanos” going on in my head on Sunday, and for the life of me, I couldn’t figure out which song it was. Google didn’t help (neither my lack of knowing how to actually spell it), a scroll through my Spotify playlist revealed nothing, so I grumpily gave up. Not half an hour later Spotify decided to save me from myself and the gods of randomness made Electric Worry pop up. This song somehow always gets my blood pumping. A good start to a Monday.

Well you made me weep and you made me moan
When you caused me to leave, child, my happy home.
But someday, baby, you ain’t worry my life anymore.

I get satisfaction everywhere I go.
Where I lay my head – that’s where I call home.
Whether barren pines, or the mission stair,
Take tomorrow’s collar and give ’em back the glare.

Bang, bang, bang, bang!
Vamanos, vamanos.
Bang, bang, bang!
Vamanos, vamanos.

You told everybody in the neighborhood
What a dirty mistreater. That I was no good.
But someday, baby, you ain’t worry my life anymore.

Doctor or lawyer, I’ll never be.
Life of a drifter, the only life for me,
You can have your riches, all the gold you saved.
Ain’t room for one thing in everybody’s grave.

Bang, bang, bang, bang!
Vamanos, vamanos!
Bang, bang, bang!
Vamanos, vamanos!

If I had money, like Henry Ford,
Lord, I’d have me a woman, yeah on every road.
But someday, baby, you ain’t worry my life any more.

Invocation of the dummies, requiem for a head,
Cash in at the corner, piles of street cred.
I get satisfaction everywhere I go.
One day, baby, you’ll worry me no more.

Bang, bang, bang, bang!
Vamanos, vamanos!
Bang, bang, bang!
Vamanos, vamanos!
