Lyrics
Electric Dreams (Nikola's Groove)
[Intro begins with catchy, groovy, ragtime piano instrumental]
[Verse 1]
In the city where the lights shine bright,
Nikola Tesla worked day and night,
Harnessing the power of the storm,
Innovations in the lab were born.
[Vocals singing in the transatlantic accent]
With a spark and a twist, he made his mark,
Inventing the future in the dark,
From the Tesla coil to wireless dreams,
He pushed the boundaries of our means.
[Bridge] [Fun piano Bridge]
Oh, the currents flowed, through his mind they’d race,
Ideas collided in a lightning chase,
Genius in the air, his vision was clear,
Changing the world, year after year.
[Verse 2]
From New York City to Colorado Springs,
He saw the future in magnetic rings,
Transmitting power without a wire,
Dreams that soared, oh, ever higher.
[Vocals singing in the transatlantic accent]
With Marconi, Edison, battles ensued,
But his visions of the future stood,
Though he faced the doubters and their sneers,
He was a man ahead of his years.
[Instrumental Pause]
(*Swinging saxophone, upbeat piano, rhythmic music*)
[Verse 3]
In his tower on the hill, he reached for the sky,
Chasing visions others dared not try,
With a mind so brilliant, ahead of time,
He composed a symphony in rhyme.
[Old school radio vocals]
AC power and the radio waves,
Innovations that the world still craves,
Lighting up cities with his electric streams,
Nikola Tesla, the man of dreams.
[Bridge]
Oh, the midnight oil burned in his eyes,
Electric whispers and luminous skies,
A dance of electrons, a visionary quest,
Pioneering spirit, he never rest.
[Verse 4] [Sad Vocals] [Spoken]
In his final days, he stood alone,
A legacy built on a mind overthrown,
But the seeds he planted, oh, they grew,
Into the world we know, the world we knew.
So let’s raise a glass to the man who dared,
To dream the impossible, visions shared,
Nikola Tesla, his name shall ring,
Forevermore, let his praises sing.
[Music builds up with the ragtime piano beats]
[Bridge]
Oh, the dance of electrons, the hum of the wire,
In the heart of his genius, an eternal fire,
With every light that shines, his spirit gleams,
Nikola Tesla, the weaver of dreams.
[Outro Instrumental] [Slowly ending with fading piano]
