Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm sick and tired of the damn TV
I'm gonna make my own movie
I wanna star in a late night show
And all I need is my video
[Verse 2]
(Shock me)
Make it electric
(Shock me)
Make it last
[Verse 3]
Curtain up, let the camera roll
It's automatic, it's in control
Got no script, baby, ain't no lines
Just me and you and a real good time
[Verse 4]
(Shock me)
Make it electric
(Shock me)
Make it last
(Shock me)
Gimme thunder and lightning
(Shock me)
Oh, babe, I need it fast
[Verse 5]
'Cause all I need is some
Action, action, action not words
Gimme action, action, action not words
[Verse 6]
C'mon and shock me
Let the cameras roll
[Verse 7]
Oh
[Verse 8]
I'll be the hero, you be the star
With your wine and your caviar
No audition, a starring role
I'll be your Bogart and you be Monroe, yeah
[Verse 9]
(Shock me)
Make it electric
(Shock me)
Oh, bump and grind
(Shock me)
Make a night to remember
(Shock me)
Do it one more time
[Verse 10]
So cut me in on the action
Lights, camera, sound, I need action
[Verse 11]
(Action, action, action not words)
Gimme action not words
Let the camera roll
(Action, action, action not words)
I need a little action
(Action, action, action not words)
(Action, action, action not words)
C'mon, talk to me with your body
[Verse 12]
Ow
Action
