Circuit breakers poppin'
Broken wires sparkin'
and my thoughts are lost in the haze
Warning elevation
Tried for stimulation
But the shock waves shorted my brain
Useless information
Burning insulation
from the heat from polarizin' the tubes
I'm overloading
My mind is smoking
Feel like I'm choking to death
I'm overloading
My head's exploding
I feel like I'm going insane
ooh ooh ooh insane yeah
(bridge)
Warning lights are flashing
Blowing out and crashing
When I come in contact with ground,
Got to reach the tower
try to cut the power
while the safety switches still can be found
I'm overloading
My mind is smoking
Feels like I'm choking to death
I'm overloading
My head's exploding
Feels like I'm going insane
ooh ooh ooh insane yeah
(bridge)
Get it
BOM bom bom ba bom ba BOM, BOM bom bom ba BOM

Overloaded, loaded
Overloaded, loaded

This song is a metaphor of various types of electrical problems and brain stress, possibly from drugs since it was written in the 1970s. Radio versions sometimes substituted the other verses that did not include the words "chokin'" and "smokin'." It has nothing at all to do with dogs.
