Hopped Up - Ric Ocasek

Hiding in your place

For a long time

With broken wings

And a real hard line

You get hopped

Hopped all up

Oh, you get hopped

Hopped all up

Hopped up

Riding and riding the train

Oh, sleeping off all the pain

Blood red car, I got a real red car

Car, car, car, got a red, red car

Going real far with my red car

Take it out on the street

Take it to the stars

'Cause I feel so fine with my red, red car, yeah

I’m a real live wire

A real live wire

Got a real desire

Even go real far

With my red, red car

I got a real gold chain, ride the chain

Ride the chain, chain, chain, chain, chain

Wrap it around, wrap it around

Wrap it around your neck

Ah, go out on the street with that chain

Hold up that chain

Gold, gold chain, gold, gold chain

Gold, gold chain

I got a gold chain

Look at me, I got a gold chain, hey

Wire, wire, got a real live wire, yeah

When you cover up my eyes

I get hopped up

When you show me your surprise

I get hopped up

When you tell me it’s the end

I get hopped up

When you start it all again, yeah

I’m a real live wire, real live wire

Real live wire, real live wire, yeah
