I always heard it as:

Were gonna turn it on
We’re gonna bring in the power
It’s comin’ down the line,
So that you can see
Into ETERNITY . . .
The Electric Company !

We’re gonna turn it on
We’re gonna bring you the power
We’re gonna light up the dark of night
like the brightest day
in a whole new way . . .

We’re gonna turn it on
We’re gonna bring you the power
We’re gonna tell you the truest word
that you ever heard
anybody say

We’re gonna open the book
And read every word we can see.
We’re gonna get us the power to learn about anything
And the power’s gonna get us free.

We’re gonna turn it on
We’re gonna bring you the power
It’s coming down the lines,
strong as they can be
through the courtesy

of The Electric Company
