Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Plug me in, I'm alive tonight

Out on the streets again

Turn me on, I'm too hot to stop

Something you'll never forget

Take my fist, break down walls

I'm on top tonight, no, no

[PreChorus]

You better turn me loose

You better set me free

'Cause I'm hot and young, running free

A little bit better than I used to be

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm alive

Live wire

'Cause I'm alive

I'm a live wire

'Cause I'm alive

Live wire

'Cause I'm alive

I'm a live wire

[Verse 2]

I'll either break her face or take down her legs

Get my ways at will

Go for the throat and never let loose

Going in for the kill

Take my fist, break down walls

I'm on top tonight, no, no

[PreChorus]

You better turn me loose

You better set me free

'Cause I'm hot and young, runnin' free

A little bit better than I used to be

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm alive

Live wire

'Cause I'm alive

I'm a live wire

'Cause I'm alive

Live wire

'Cause I'm alive

I'm a live wire

[Bridge]

Come on, baby

Gotta play with me

Well, I'm your live wire, yeah

Better lock your doors

I'm on the prowl tonight

Well, be mine tonight

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm alive

Live wire

'Cause I'm alive

I'm a live wire

'Cause I'm alive

Live wire

'Cause I'm alive

[Outro]

Come on and be my baby ('Cause I'm alive)

Come on, tonight ('Cause I'm alive)

Come on and love me, baby ('Cause I'm alive)

Come on, tonight ('Cause I'm alive)

[Outro]

I'll give you everything ('Cause I'm alive)

You want inside ('Cause I'm alive)

Plug me in, plug me in, I want you tonight ('Cause I'm alive)

Come on, tonight
