MOTLEY CRUE LYRICS

1. Live Wire

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

Cause I'm hot, young, running free
A little bit better than I use 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

I'll either break her face
Or take down her legs
Get my ways at will
Go for the throat
Never let loose
Goin' in for the kill
Take my fist
Break down walls
I'm on top tonight

[Pre Chorus]
[Chorus]

Come on baby
Gotta play with me
Well I'm your live wire
You better lock your doors
I'm on the prowl tonight
Well be mine tonight

[Chorus]

Come on be may baby
Come on tonight
Come on be may baby
Come on tonight
I'll give you everything
You want inside
Plug me in, plug me in
I want you
Come on tonight

2. Come On And Dance

[1]
Took my love
Into overdrive
Custom pink
Tonight you'll pay the price
When she's hot
Well, damn she's hot
Electric love
Like Sandra Dee

Should have seen her dance

[Chorus]
Come on and dance
Come on baby
Come on and dance
[2]
Fast and slick
Well she's cool and clean
In a pepsi sheen
She's a leather tease
When she's on top
Well, you can't be stopped
Watch her scream
Watch her suck you clean
And you should've seen her dance

[Chorus]
[1]
[Chorus]

You should've seen her dance
Come-on-and
Come on and dance

3. Public Enemy #1

You and me
We're gonna escape tonight
On the run
Under the moonlight
Don't think about nothin'
Don't think about nothin'
Tragedy
Runnin' the red light
Hear the screams
Another one dies tonight
Don't think about nothin'
Don't think about nothin'

[Pre Chorus]
Do you know how it feels
To be wanted
Do you know how it feels
To be wanted
Do you know how it feels
To be wanted
To be under the gun
On the run, having fun
When you're young
You're so young
When you're young

[Chorus]
Public enemy #1
Oh yeah
I'm public enemy #1
Oh yeah
I'm public enemy #1
Oh yeah .......
Climbing high
Fast as the speed of sound
Loser's dreams
Crashing to the ground
Don't think about nothin'
Don't think about nothin'

You and me
Under the gun tonight
On the run
We're lost in the lime light
Don't think about nothin'
Because we're gonna get crazy

[Pre Chorus]

[Chorus]
[Pre Chorus]
[Chorus]

Public Enemy #1
Hey Hey Hey

4. Merry-Go-Round

[1]
You know he's gotta get away
To the merry-go-round and round
Count times that he laid awake
At night thinkin'
Am I goin' down now
Am I goin' down
Am I goin' down now, oh!

[2]
It's not easy puttin' on a smile
You're alone, lost and found
She waits at home just to love him
Through the night thinkin'
He's been gone so long now
Is he coming home
He's been gone so long now, oh!

[Chorus]
Merry-go-round and round [repeat]
[1]
[Chorus]
[Chorus]

She waits alone
Just to love him through the night
I'm coming home babe

5. Take Me To The Top

Don't you know, know, know
It's a violation
I still hear you saying
Such a perfect, perfect night
No, no, no fight all temptation
Well, in a black hearted alley fight
I'm screaming
Take me to the heights tonight
Take me to the top
Take me to the top . . . [repeat]
Too many times
Victim accusation
No, you don't have to take it like that
A sheer, sheer heart attack
No, no noit's no realization
I never had a way with you
But I still hear you saying
Take me to the top
Take me to the top . . . [repeat]

Take me to the top
To the top and throw me off . . . [repeat]

Take me to the top

6. Piece Of Your Action

[1]
I want you, I need you
I want you to be mine tonight
You need me, you tease me
Use you up, throw you away
You're fire, taking me higher
Don't burn me, don't let me down
You need me now, I'll teach you how
Come on and go all the way
[Chorus]
Get a piece of your action
ah uh
Get a piece of your action
ah uh
[2]
Tight action, rear traction
So hot, you really blow me away
Fast moving, wet and ready
The time is right, so hold on tight
Live Wire, night prowler
Lay back and take me inside
You need me now, I'll teach you how
Come on let's go all the way
[Chorus]
[1]
[Chorus]

7. Starry Eyes

When she laughs
She's got the power of a child in her eyes
And when you cry now
She'll hold you like a man's supposed to be held
I can't get into words how I feel
Get it right in this song now
I had to set her free
Needed a friend
Come back to me

Oh starry eyes
Oh, oh [repeat]
Standing alone in the light
You could see her cry
With a smile and a wink
And a sparkle in her eyes
She calmly sighed, I will be all right
Okay child you've had to take the pain
Of a man in the streets
You gotta let me in
Needed a friend
Even just for one night

Oh, starry eyes
Oh, oh [repeat]

Oh no, oh no, oh no

Oh, starry eyes
Oh, oh [repeat]

8. Too Fast For Love

Oh no, oh no
Oh. no oh no
Oh no, oh no
Living on a jet
Making love to someone else's dreams
Say it again
She puts her leg up
Well, calls it good luck
Do you know what I mean?
Do you remember?
Well I remember
Oh no, oh no
Dream machine
So damn cool she can turn on the night
The more she gets

Well, the more that she needs
Do you know what I mean?
Do you remember?
Well I remember Oh no, oh no

[Chorus]
Too fast
Too fast for love
Too fast
You're too fast for love [repeat]

Oh no, oh no
She's a streamline queen
On a sex craved movie screen
Say it again
She'll use her time up
Have nothing to show
Well mark my words
Do you remember?
Well I remember
Oh no, oh no

[Chorus]

You're too fast
You're too fast for love

9. On With The Show

Frankie died just the other night
Some say it was suicide
But we know
How the story goes

With his six string knife
And his street wise pride
The boy was a man before his time
And she knew
All their dreams would come true

But ya see, Frankie was fast
Too fast to know
He wouldn't go slow
Until his lethal dose
And she knows
He'll finally come too close

[Chorus]
Well, on with the show
Going on with the show
Come on baby
No, no, no
Oh my, my, my . . . [repeat]

He was bad
He was never good
But one thing that he understood
And she knew
All those lies would come true The time has come and
He's paid his dues
Suzy finally got the news
She always knew
This day would come soon

[Chorus]
[Chorus]
He was stopped on a dime
With a switchblade knife
Some damn punk went and
Took Frankie's life
And she knew
She'd have to pull through

Broken down, with his broken dreams
With a wink of an eye
Said Suzy, listen to me
You must go
On with the show

Go on with the show
Going on with the show
Come on baby
No nono
Oh my my my my [repeat]

Oh baby
