| He stays out far too late,
|
| Drinking alone.
|
| Likes to hang out at the bar,
|
| He’s the last to go home.
|
| His world just keeps on spinning,
|
| He’s way out of control,
|
| He’s losing sight and his days turn to night,
|
| And there’s just no letting go.
|
| He’s a real-live wire,
|
| Gonna get burnt playing with fire.
|
| He can’t get no higher,
|
| Wants to be flying free;
|
| But he comes crashing down when he hits the ground,
|
| Less stuck on reality.
|
| 'Cause he’s a real-live wire,
|
| Gonna get burnt playing with fire, fire.
|
| He wakes up 5 hours late,
|
| In lasts nights clothes.
|
| Red eyes with a splitting head,
|
| Wondering how he got home.
|
| The ceiling keeps on spinning and he’s way out of control,
|
| He’s losing sight and his days turn to night and he just can’t let it go.
|
| He’s a real-live wire,
|
| Gonna get burnt playing with fire.
|
| He can’t get no higher,
|
| Wants to be flying free;
|
| But he comes crashing down when he hits the ground,
|
| Less stuck on reality.
|
| 'Cause he’s a real-live wire,
|
| Gonna get burnt playing with fire.
|
| And his heart is racing faster,
|
| Full of flames, he feels the heat,
|
| He won’t stop until it’s over, it’s over
|
| He’s a real-live wire,
|
| Gonna get burnt playing with fire,
|
| He can’t get no higher,
|
| Wants to be flying free;
|
| But he comes crashing down when he hits the ground,
|
| Less stuck on reality
|
| 'Cause he’s a real-live wire,
|
| Gonna get burnt playing with fire, fire,
|
| fire, fire… |
