[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
[Pre-Chorus]
No, no
You better turn me loose
You better set me free
Because I'm hot, young, running free
A little bit better than I used to be
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm alive
Live wire
'Cause I'm alive
Live wire
'Cause I'm alive
Live wire
'Cause I'm alive
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
[Pre-Chorus]
No, no
You better turn me loose
You better set me free
Because I'm hot, young, running free
A little bit better than I used to be
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm alive
Live wire
'Cause I'm alive
Live wire
'Cause I'm alive
Live wire
'Cause I'm alive
Live wire
[Bridge]
Come on baby
Gotta play with me
Well, I'm your live wire, yeah
You 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
Live wire
'Cause I'm alive
Live wire
'Cause I'm alive
Live wire
[Outro]
Come on, be my baby
('Cause I'm alive)
Come on, tonight
('Cause I'm alive)
Come on, love me baby
('Cause I'm alive)
Come on, tonight
('Cause I'm alive)
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
('Cause I'm alive)
Come on, tonight
