Well, there’s a rumble in the park
There’s a thunder in the dark
The night’s so quiet, it's chain lightning

Beneath a street light
Two boys boppin’ in the night
They had something in ’em called chain lightning

Though you never hear a sound
There’s a fire underground
Rumbling through the town
You can’t keep it from comin’ down

Lovers walking through the mist
Romeo, he steal a kiss
Caught up in the moment of chain lightning

Now I don’t know about romance
But baby, it’s the latest dance
Everybody’s getting up, doin’ it, chain lightning

All along the strand, baby
Down in jungleland
Everybody’s caught up in chain lightning

Ever hear the sound of a fire underground?
Rumblin’ through the town
The big cold is comin’ down
Sittin’ at the light
I’m a rider in the night
Streaking light to light for chain lightning

I ain’t into style, baby
I ain’t into fashion
I just got a passion for chain lightning

Sittin’ at the light
I’m a rider in the night
Streaking light to light for chain lightning
