David Lee Webster - When The Poles Come Down Lyrics

They said you can't be off the grid
If you're posting online
But I just laugh and flip the switch
'Cause my power's all mine
No blackouts no bills to chase
Just the sun on my face
Every watt that I collect
Is a step toward my escape
When the poles come down we'll be dancing in the street
No wires in the skyline just the sun and the breeze
No more ticking meters no more monthly fees
When the poles come down we'll be finally free
Took a ride to North Captiva
Where the lines run underground
No clutter in the heavens
Just the ocean all around
Some folks plug into the system
But some choose to walk away
With solar sails and battery trails
We light up our own way
When the poles come down we'll be dancing in the street
No wires in the skyline just the sun and the breeze
No more ticking meters no more monthly fees
When the poles come down we'll be finally free
A van in the valley a cabin in the trees
A yacht on the water drifting on the seas
No fuel no gas just a silent hum
The future's here the grid is done
So mark the day start the countdown
Raise your glass when they cut that last line down
From the cities to the hills we're taking back the ground
When the poles come down when the poles come down
When the poles come down we'll be dancing in the street
No wires in the skyline just the sun and the breeze
No more ticking meters no more monthly fees
When the poles come down when the poles come down
