[Intro]
Power on!
(Let it flow!)
Power up!
(Ready to go!)
Something’s sparking
(What’s that sound?)
Lights are flashing
(Shutting down!)
[Verse 1]
Everything was working fine
Running right on borrowed time
Then a little glitch appeared
Something wasn’t quite as clear
[Refrain]
Short circuit
(Upped and quit)
Short circuit
(Yes, sir… shh… it!)
[Verse 2]
Thoughts are racing through my head
Half the things I should have said
Too many signals coming in
Where does one idea begin?
Can’t connect and can’t compute
Lost the signal, lost the route
When the system starts to freeze
Somebody pull the plug, please!
[Refrain]
Short circuit
(Upped and quit)
Short circuit
(Yes, sir… shh… it!)
[Bridge]
What’s the problem?
(Too much current!)
What’s the answer?
(Stop the surge!)
What’s the signal?
(Interference!)
What’s the system?
(Needs a clearance!)
Unplug!
(Reset!)
Reconnect!
(Reflect!)
Take a breath!
(Then inspect!)
Click!
(Clack!)
Zap!
(Back!)
Blink!
(Think!)
Drop!
(Stop!)
[Final Refrain]
Short circuit
(Upped and quit)
Short circuit
(Oh, oh shh… it!)
Short circuit
(Overload!)
Short circuit
(There goes the code!)
Short circuit
(Disconnect!)
Short circuit
(Then reconnect!)
[Outro]
Power down…
(Let it go!)
Power up…
(Nice and slow!)
No more sparks…
(No more fits!)
Back online…
(That’s the fix!)
Short circuit!
(Oh, oh shh… it!)
SHORT CIRCUIT!
