I'm not a loco with motive to suture myself
I've been a cynic for too many years!
Playing doctor and nurse can be good for your health
I've seen clinics with those gimmicks in Tangiers

But if you open your heart to a smooth operator
He'll take you for all that you've got!
He'll hand you a curse that'll be with you later
It'll shake you the way he takes off like a shot!

You need a bit of-
Ooooh... Shock Treatment!
Gets you jumping like a real live wire
Need a bit of-
Ooooh... Shock Treatment!
So look out Mister, don't you blow your last resistor for a sister that'll certify ya...

You're blinded by romance, you're blinded by science
Your condition is critically grave
But don't expect mercy from such an alliance
Suspicion of tradition's so new wave...

You need a bit of-
Ooooh... Shock Treatment!
Gets you jumping like a real live wire
You need a bit of-
Ooooh... Shock Treatment!
So look out Mister, don't you blow your last resistor for a sister that'll certify ya
Just a bit of-
Ooooh... Shock Treatment!
To get you jumping like a real live wire
You need a bit of-
Ooooh... Shock Treatment!
So look out Mister, don't you blow your last resistor for a sister that'll certify ya
