Been living too fast
Got my head on full throttle
As I scream and scour
In the bottom of a bottle
Can't stand up honey
Got my tongue on the floor
Living out a dream
About the third world war
Time warp baby
That's where I live
Time warp honey
Something's gotta give
Feeling tonight like my 
Brain is on fire
Don't touch me tonight
I'm a high tension wire
The girls I see
They don't do nothing for me
I'm stuck here all alone
Got no where to be
You're looking at me 
Like I'm under the weather
But you crawl on your knees
Just to lick up my leather
Time warp baby
That's where I live
Time warp honey
Something's gotta give
Feeling tonight like my 
Brain is on fire
Don't touch me tonight
I'm a high tension wire
