Lyrics


1. BEATING AROUND THE BUSH

Smiling face and loving eyes
But you keep on telling me all those lies
How do you expect me to believe
Honey, I ain't that naive
Baby, I got my eye on you
But you do all the things that I want you to
Stop your crying and dry your tears
I ain't that wet behind the ears

You can throw me left
And you can throw me right
The way we do this night
Beating around the bush

Wish I knew what's on your mind
Why you're being so unkind?
Remember those nights you spent alone
Talking on the telephone
Thoughts of you go through my brain
You told me that you felt the same
You said that you love me too
Tell me, who would lie with you?

I was talking birds
And you was talking bees
And was he was down upon his knees
Beating around the bush

You're the meanest woman I've ever known
Sticks and stones won't break my bones
I know what you're looking for
You ate your cake, you want some more
I'm gonna give you just a one more chance
Try to save our romance
Done everything I'm gonna do
The rest is up to you

You can chew it up
And you can spit it out
Let it all hang out
Beating around the bush

Oh
Chew it up
Spit it out
Let it all hang out
Beating around the bush


2. LIVE WIRE

Well if you're lookin' for trouble
I'm the man to see
If you're lookin' for satisfaction
I'm satisfaction guaranteed
I'm as cool as a body on ice
Or hotter than a rollin' dice
Send you to heaven
Take you to hell
I ain't foolin'
Can't you tell

I'm a live wire, I'm a live wire, I'm a live wire
Gonna set this town on fire

Well if you need some lovin'
And if you need some man
You've got the phone and the number
And I got no future plans
Oh, come on honey, you got nothin' to lose
You got the thirst 'n I got the booze
Give you an inch
Take you a mile
I wanna make you smile

I'm a live wire, live wire
I'm a live wire, live wire
I'm a live wire, live wire
Holy smoke and sweet desire

Like a hot rod baby?
Oh, stick this in your fuse box

Cooler than a body on ice
Hotter than a rollin' dice
Wilder than a drunken fight
You're gonna burn tonight

I'm a live wire, live wire
I'm a live wire, live wire
I'm a live wire, live wire
And I'm gonna set this town on fire

Live wire, live wire
I'm a live wire, live wire
Well I'm a live wire, live wire
I'm a live wire, live wire
I'm gonna burn, found me guilty
Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn


3. SHOT DOWN IN FLAMES

Wow, one, two

Out on the town, looking for a woman
Gonna give me good love
Anybody want to hang out with me
And maybe burn me up
She was standing alone, over by the jukebox
Like she's something to sell
I said, "Baby, what's the going price?"
She told me to go to hell

Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
To be shot down in flames

Singles bar, got my eye on a honey
Hanging out everywhere
She might be straight
She minds all her money
I really don't care, no
Said, "Baby, you're driving me crazy"
Layed it out on the line
When a guy with a chip on his shoulder, said
"Toss off buddy, she's mine"
Oh

Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
Yeah, to be shot down in flames

Hey you, Angus, shoot me, shoot

That's nice,
Woo
Uh
Oh
Oh
Wooooh

Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
To be shot down in flames

Oh
Shot

Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
To be shot down in flames

I don't want to be in pain
Don't want to be shot down in flames
Ohhh
