When I'm feelin' down
So mellow and blue
There's a sure fire remedy
That always pulls me through
I just gotta get me a fix
Of those high voltage kicks
Playin' my music loud
Really like that sound
Come on get out the lead
Gonna wake the dead
'Cause I'm flyin' high
Come on let's go
Needles on the red line
Hittin' overload
I've been waiting
For so long
Plug me in and
Turn me on
I'm wired for sound
Gimme those
(High voltage kicks)
I need those
(High voltage kicks)
Gonna throw the switch
(High voltage kicks)
I want those
(High voltage kicks)
If my feet had wheels
You know I'd rock n' roll right outta here
Eat my dust
Well you better stay clear
'Cause when the whistle blows
Well, I gotta go
Meet at the station with some
Rock n' roll
Got my ticket
And I'm on the move
Plug me in and
Turn me lose
Gonna blow a fuse
Gimme those
(High voltage kicks)
I need those
(High voltage kicks)
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme those
(High voltage kicks)
I want those
(High voltage)
Kick it out
Kick ass
It's a slice
It's a gas
You know it
Listen up
Got my ticket
On the rock express
Plug me in and
Oh, I must confess
There ain't no rest for the wicked
(High voltage kicks)
I need those
(High voltage kicks)
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme those
(High voltage kicks)
I want those
(High voltage kicks)
Come on, come on, come on, come on
(High voltage kicks)
I want those
(High voltage kicks)
I need a hit of those
Circuits on overload
Come on and give me those
High voltage kicks

Helix è una band canadese di hard rock/heavy metal formatasi nel 1974. Sono noti soprattutto per il loro singolo del 1984 "Rock You". La formazione originale era composta dal batterista Bruce Arnold, dal cantante Brian Vollmer, dai chitarristi Ron Watson e Rick "Minstrel" Trembley, dal tastierista Don Simmons e dal bassista Keith "Bert" Zurbrigg. La formazione più famosa, però, quella che ha inciso "Rock You", è stata quella degli anni '80: Vollmer al canto, accompagnato dai chitarristi Brent "The Doctor" Doerner e Paul Hackman, dal bassista Daryl Gray e dal batterista Greg "Fritz" Hinz. La storia della band è segnata da numerosi cambi di formazione, con Vollmer come unico membro costante e l'unico rimasto della formazione originale. Sebbene il chitarrista Paul Hackman sia morto in un incidente stradale nel 1992, i membri sopravvissuti della formazione degli anni '80 si sono riuniti nel 2009 per un album e continuano a fare tour nel 2010.
