Live Wire Lyrics By Martha The Vandellas

    live wire ooh
    live wire ooh
    live wire ooh
    live wire ooh

    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

    hook
    but everything i plan to say
    just seems to fade away
    every time
    i see his face
    my eyes light up
    sparks start to flying

    ’cause he’s a live wire
    a real live wire
    he’s like a bolt of lightning
    that sets my soul afire

    sweet kisses are his ali
    and that’s
    that’s where my weakness lies

    though i plan and rehearse
    things i want to say
    the words never
    never come my way

    hook
    ’cause everything i plan to say
    just seems to fade away
    every time
    i see his face
    my eyes light up
    sparks start to flying

    ’cause he’s a live wire
    a real live wire
    he’s like a bolt of lightning
    that sets my soul afire

    ’cause he’s a live wire
    a real live wire
    he’s like a bolt of lightning
    that sets my soul afire

    ’cause he’s a live wire
    a real live wire
    he’s like a bolt of lightning
    that sets my soul afire

    yeah
    live wire
    my eyes light up
    yeah
