Electricity

I have volts inside my bolts

Certain to shock you with a ZAP!

Fierce and frightening as lightning

You’ll not find a stronger chap

Measure my use by your meter

I am total energy

Helping food fry, making sparks fly

I am electricity

More effective, more efficient

Than my deadly rival gas

Though I’m here you rarely see me

‘Cos I’m nearly zero mass

Still I keep your gadgets working

Whether mains or battery

With my might I keep your lights on

I am electricity

Michael Faraday’s my dad and

Mother Nature is my mum

Moving motors, generators

As I run and run and run

Flick a switch or plug a socket

Then you will awaken me

Giving power every hour

I am electricity
