I find myself plugged in
Into high anxiety
When I'm faced with next to nothing
On my lowering level of battery

Everything I think I need
Is tethered with a power cord
Electricity has control over me
A simple fact I find hard to ignore

I'll likely get the nervous jitters
When devices start running low
Well, you know I ain't no quitter
The man in me, aways on the go

I find myself plugged in
To the nearest socket that comforts me
To keep it all clearly running
I'm deathly afraid to even skip a beat

I get the major shivers and shakes
When the battery shows 50 or below
I only hope I didn't make a mistake
And leave my charger back home alone

Out of all the issues of the day
This one really gets to me
How many out there can relate
To Battery Anxiety

...and could you spare an extra plug for me
