(Live wire, ooh
Live wire, ooh)
(2x)

It's my birthday and he forgot again
Every time we date, he's always late
Tired of abuses and excuses, I've made up my mind
Gonna tell him this time we're through, yeah

But everything I plan to say
Just seems to fade away
Every time I see his face,
My eyes light up, sparks start to flyin'

But he's a live wire
A real live wire
He's like a bolt of lightnin'
And sets my soul on fire

Sweet kisses are his alibi
And that's where, that's where, that's where my weakness lies
Though I plan and rehearse the things I want to say,
The words never never come my way

'Cause everything I plan to say
Just seems to fade away
Every time I see his face,
My eyes light up, sparks start to flyin'

But he's a live wire

INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE

He's like a bolt of lightnin'
And sets my soul on fire
He's like a live wire
A real live wire
A bolt of lightnin'
My eyes light up, yeah
Sets my soul on fire
He's like a live wire
Real live wire
A bolt of lightnin', yeah
A live wire
(fade out)
