Your lightnin's all I need
My satisfaction grows
You make me feel at ease
You even make me glow
Don't cut the power on me
I'm feelin' low, so get me high

Shock me, make me feel better
Shock me, put on your black leather
Shock me, we can come together

And baby, if you do what you've been told
My insulation's gone, girl you make me overload

Don't pull the plug on me, no, no
Keep it in and keep me high

Shock me, make me feel better
Shock me, put on your black leather
Shock me, we can come together
Come on

Shock me, baby, shock me, oh yeah
Shock me, baby, shock me, oh yeah

Shock me, make me feel better, oh yeah
Come on and shock me, put on your black leather
Baby, I'm down to the bare wire
Shock me, we can come together
Oh yeah, I wanna feel your power
Shock me, make me feel better
Baby, I'm down to the bare wire
Shock me, put on your black leather
Baby, come on, come on, shock me

    General CommentIt's about when Ace got shocked on stage and got up and was still playing...

    "Don't pull the plug" More than likely refering to his guitar cord.. which transferred the shock...


    The only time KISS sucked is when they took off their face paint, that was so gay... just plain out gay.

    The vid to "Lick It Up" came on tv, and they have no face paint in it, so I yelled at my dad to turn the channel..

    General CommentI feel like an idiot but I'm taking an electonics course as my elective this semester in highschool. We're doing stupid stuff to get the dumb kids caught up and while the teachers talking I think of this song.

    General CommentI just don't like Frehley's voice. It's always so emotionless. It's almost ruined some really good songs, like this one. He's just not a singer. The main singers in KISS are Gene and Paul, and there's a reason for that.

    General CommentGreat song, surprised at so few comments.
    Ace got the inspiration from a time when he got electrocuted on stage. It's also a metaphor for a relationship.

    General CommentThe Story of when Ace got shocked while playing in I believe Lakeland Florida. Not sure if it was the Destroyer tour or the Rock-n-Roll Over tour as they went back to back. The set had Metal Stairways with platforms atop. They would start the concert with the 3 guitarist above on the platforms usually playing Detroit Rock City. Gene and Paul would make their way down first followed by Ace. I believe I heard that the stairways played a part in the shocking.
    Anyways, one of my Favs from Ace and Kiss

    General CommentThis song is strictly about sex, nothing more, nothing less. Of course Ace is going to say it’s about a time he was shocked on stage. Just replace the word shock with the word fuck, and you will get it
