I wanna touch electricity I wanna find a sweet mystery I wanna live on a razors edge I wanna know, I wanna know Aint gonna burn in your mean machine I'm gonna swim or you drunk the sea Aint gonna tell on your yellow tea I wanna know, I wanna know Yeah my mind's made up to make a break away Yeah my mind's made up to make a brand new way Yeah my minds made up to make a caberet I want to get a ticket to a different seat I wanna touch electricity I wanna find a sweet mystery I wanna live on a razors edge I wanna know, I wanna know (Guitar Solo) Aint gonna walk through surburban land I'm gonna speak, so you understand Aint gonna be your mystery I wanna know, I wanna know
Quotations and trivia
Two Guitar solos continue well after Stewart stops drumming, until Stewart politely says "er...Andy?". Then shortly after, Sting raises his voice and also says "Andy" for him to stop playing the insane guitar solo. The song finally finishes with a vintage high pitched Sting losing his temper by shouting "ANDY" with added echo!
The song also appears on a setlist for the gig on 1978-02-23.
