Ace Frehley - Wiped-Out Lyrics






Wiped Out!

I went to a party, just so smartly, cool as cool could be
I knew I could make it, knew I could shake it, loose and fancy free
So I went to the table and reached for a bottle
And poured me a glass of wine
Took a few sips and looked around, I was feelin' fine
But an hour along, comin' on strong, I was gettin' drunk
The next thing I knew I looked at you, I was blind as a skunk

(Oh, oh, oh)
I was...

I was wiped out
I had my lights out
Was fallin' right out
'Cause I was wiped out

Through the smoke-filled room I caught your eye
And I think that you caught mine
And I knew in a minute or maybe less, it was just a matter of time
Then you started to move with such a groove, stronger than sneakin' slow
Then you looked at me with your big blue eyes, they had such a glow
So I took your hand and tried to stand and ended up sittin' back down
Then you smiled at me and gave me a wink, how quick I lost my frown

(Oh, oh, oh)
I was...

I was wiped out
I had my lights out
Was fallin' right out
'Cause I was wiped out

So I looked at you and then I knew that we were gonna have some fun
So I thought to myself, wine was out, we should switch to rum
So without a word and like some bird, we flew to another place
And pretty soon we were in some room stretched miles out in space
The room was turnin', we were burnin', things became a haze
It seemed that already I had too many, firewater caused the blaze

(Oh, oh, oh)
I was...

I was wiped out
I had my lights out
Was fallin' right out
'Cause I was wiped out

I was wiped out
Was fallin' right out
I had my lights out
'Cause I was wiped out

I was wiped out
I had my lights out
Was fallin' right out
'Cause I was wiped out

I was wiped out
Was fallin' right out
I had my lights out
'Cause I was wiped out

I was wiped out

Ace Frehley Wiped-Out Comments
  1. S.... M....

    Not just the best of the 4
    .. frankly one of the best ever

  2. B.... A....

    My favorite song from Ace's album and the most autobiographical!

  3. J.... M....

    Yes Kiss without ACE was and is just such a mess...people I tell you...ACE knew exactly what he was worth for fucking Paul and disgusting Gene

  4. J.... N....

    This song is so funny to me. Ace was good.. I was wiped out, I had my lights out. He was talking about being drunk and fucked up. He was still a great guitar player. One of my best friends helped him down the stairs to sign autographs.

  5. J.... P....

    The ace solo album just gave him the proper motivation. It outsold the other guy's albums very disproportionately. I mean come on gene singing when you wish upon a star. Never bothered listening to Paul or Peter's.

  6. J.... H....

    Story/Song of his life

  7. r.... p....

    ace up there with the 70s great like johnny thunders and Marc bolan

  8. S.... C....

    This tune rocks!! This whole album rocks!!! 👍🏻😊🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🤢🤮🤮🤮🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻

  9. M.... ....

    This song has a proto new wave sound to it. Ace pre guessed punk and new wave.

  10. M.... A....

    Freakin simple but groovin and awesome album!

    M.... A....

    Ace didn't complicate stuff. Solid guitar dude/writer.

  11. R.... K....

    much Thanks to You and Yours. 😅🎼🎶🇺🇸😘🏆🎲. BOBZGT🏁🌍

  12. m.... s....

    THIS SONG ABOVE IS A STORY, ABOUT SOME DRUNK ASSHOLE AT A PARTY! MUSIC BY ACE AND LYRICS FROM ANTON FIG! I PLAYED THIS SONG NOT DRUNK, AT ACE BIRTHDAY 27 APRIL 2019, WHEN ACE BEEN 68 YEARS OLD TODAY. 1978 ACE WAS ONLY 27 YEARS OLD

  13. D.... B....

    Gene and Paul dictated Ace. Very ignorant. Love ACE

  14. D.... B....

    ACE created the sound of KISS. I don't care for the KISS today. ACE rules

    D.... B....

    Only old Kiss, pre solo records. R and R Over and Dressed To Kill.

    D.... B....

    And yes, Ace seems to be a cool mofo.

  15. D.... B....

    ACE rules

  16. c.... b....

    I think.id rank the solos
    ACE
    PAUL
    GENE
    PETER

    c.... b....

    crazy burkey Paul’s fuckin last

  17. C.... M....

    Imagine if ACE never drank or did drugs ...... ok yeah I agree ..... fuk that ! 🤣

  18. G.... K....

    I love this song so much but it kinda sounds like a ho-down like YEE-HAW!!!

  19. B.... M....

    The beginning of this song was either sampled or replicated for a television commercial.

    B.... M....

    Barry Manilowa It actually comes from an older song from the 60’s called... Wipe Out.

  20. P.... K....

    Ace's writing ability is by far better than Gene, Paul, and peter's combined.

  21. R.... I....

    Cool intro and rhythm guitars.

  22. C.... G....

    KISS needed Ace. Ace did not need KISS.

  23. a.... l....

    without ace, kiss would never have been a rockband at all, it would have been more like poprock, but never real hardrock. ace was the only true rocker in kiss.

  24. a.... o....

    Who else had kiss makeup AND was space ace

    a.... o....

    I did lol

    a.... o....

    Meeeeee!

    a.... o....

    Oh yes,my dad my brother and his friend were kiss. Love the old pics and memories!

  25. a.... o....

    I was WIPED I HAD MY LIGHTS OUT.....

  26. S.... A....

    Nice job from Will Lee on bass

  27. B.... S....

    00:50 rules

  28. k.... h....

    Ace is amazing. He's an absolute legend

  29. D.... C....

    great song but ace you really need to rework I was blind as a skunk line.   really???!! lol

    D.... C....

    😂 hey, maybe he knew a blind skunk, you don’t know!

    D.... C....

    Actually I just figured it out. “drunk as a skunk”+“blind drunk” = blind as a skunk! Kind of clever actually lol

    D.... C....

    mike oliver  I like that idea. Not to mention skunks have very poor eyesight

  30. S.... ....

    somehow i feel Les Claypool might hv been influenced by this song for his Wynona’s big brown beaver... both awesome tracks though..

  31. j.... g....

    Stay sober Ace.

  32. D.... W....

    The B-side of this album is just amazing all the way through!

    D.... W....

    Dylan Waller Fractured Mirror!!

  33. J.... T....

    I loved this song before I knew what it was like to be wiped out. But, I sure know now.

  34. G.... ....

    Notice Vivien Vincent has multiple YouTube accounts so he can claim he is better than ACE lol. You fucking queer you're even uglier as a woman lol no one likes you people make fun of you all the time. Everyone knows you're a crossdressing faggot! ACE FREHLEY kicks your little girl ass on guitar it's not even close bitch! ACE is respected and loved you are made fun of you fucking faggot! And poor poor Boob Kulick it must really suck to be a well......bob it's a pretty good little name plain common bob its not an ACE but little boob it's a nice little "musician" it must have really sucked after ACE intimidated little bob at the KISS guitar audition and little boob ran out crying when everyone laughed at him and then to know ACE FREHLEY became famous and wealthy while little boob was forced to prostitute his ass in order to pay for his trailer park rent.

  35. D.... ....

    When I was 11 I used to play this song over and over and over again. Even when I was 11 I knew Ace Frehley was the coolest member of KISS.

  36. J.... P....

    I can't seem to get enough of this song.

    J.... P....

    Dude, i love this fucking song! I'm Wiped Out!

  37. D.... t....

    I was 7 when this came out, I've owned it on vinyl since then. now in my 40s ACE is tattooed on my arm. FUCKING he great album, space ace forever......

  38. G.... ....

    I still don't understand how Ace had the best solo album the most highly acclaimed one and yet they chose to go in a completely different direction for Dynasty...why? Ace obviously had the winning formula here. It's sad how the next few years where just sub par attempts and pop or prog rock. And only when Ace was sick and tired of them do they actually decide oh maybe we should make a heavy album now....

    G.... ....

    Business ideas over soul, on the part of Gene & Paul, and maybe other management

    G.... ....

    GrayWoIf - I tolerated "Dynasty" but they lost me on "Unmasked" forward. "Psycho Circus" hearkens back to the original spirit they had in the mid-seventies, but Ace & Peter didn't play on it... "I Was Made For Loving You" was among their biggest (if not greatest) hit songs. They were probably trying to achieve that again, but nothing worked for them like the 1996 reunion that utilized their 1976 - 1977 era show & 1974 - 1979 songs (with a few additions, they did have a few good tunes over the decades).

    G.... ....

    The producers and music industry got them Paul and Gene . Money and greed

    G.... ....

    GrayWoIf Greed is definitely a factor but with the narcissistic tendencies that Paul and Gene have displayed over the years.....they cannot give credit to someone else or go in any direction that was not their idea. You hear about Ace and Peter being addicted to substances and in turn negatively effecting others. How about Gene and Pauls’ addictions? They are addicted to WEALTH and FAME! They will do anything to keep those things and they’ve brought negativity to others for decades. How much did they do for Ace and Peter when they were drunk and on drugs? Did they try to help them or anything? I’m asking because sometimes it seems like they didn’t do much to help.

    G.... ....

    GrayWoIf Ace actually had the most songs featured on Dynasty and Unmasked but the band was fractured .

  39. l.... b....

    Love it xx

  40. S.... C....

    @RockSalami i guess it's muting with the left hand and a wah

  41. k.... s....

    fucking awesome!!!!!!!! ace needs to do a reboot of this album for real!!!

  42. J.... B....

    Thee best chorus....

  43. D.... t....

    Dad bought me all four solos when they came out in 1978 I was only 7 years old. I still own those vinyl copies and listen to them often,great memories.

    D.... t....

    classic....me too but i dont have mine anymore, wish i still did.....

    D.... t....

    @Glenn Levy get them back

  44. R.... D....

  45. r.... m....

    I was wiped out,  I had my lights out.............

    r.... m....

    Gene can take a rocket ride

    Z.... Z....

    +Ziggyzag Zi lol....I hear ya.

    Z.... Z....

    Fuck Gene.

    Z.... Z....

    Ziggyzag Zi ...lol paul has been for years...now it is genes turn

    Z.... Z....

    rocket ride is about entering a black hole

  47. j.... ....

    Ace's solo album was the best

    j.... ....

    Yep. My faves when I was a kid were Gene, Paul, Ace, then Peter, but when the solo albums came out, I pretty much only listened to Ace and Peters. Gene's was odd and Paul's was about as bland as RoboCop's dinner paste.

    j.... ....

    It was really good.

  48. E.... M....

    The sexiest member of KISS. ;)

  49. z.... ....

    obviously KISS held him BACK!

    z.... ....

    zaggnut13 of course...its always been the gene and paul show....featuring whoever was the drummer/lead for that year....then new ones the year later

  50. o.... ....

    dam your fine

  51. P.... D....

    great drinkin' song !!!

  52. 2.... ....

    The power of the space man !

  53. m.... ....

    fame didnt change him lol...bein a drunk and a junkie did

    m.... ....

    He was a drunk and a junkie before being famous....

  54. E.... ....

    lol who screamed "wiped-out" at the beginning? XD

  55. T.... C....

    The Clarences love & support Ace/Kiss!

  56. a.... ....

    Everything about this album was just right. A great guitar album with soaring notes, melodic & technical playing, killer tone, great mix, Ace's unique style of singing was just right, all the lyrics seem to be the perfect for the songs, it's legitimate heavy rock while at the same time pure rock and roll. I do not think it is possible to make such a thing again, no matter who tries (even Ace & Eddie Kramer themselves).

  57. m.... ....

    @superzapper it still sucked b@lls! man of 1000 faces was just almost a decent song tho

  58. B.... A....

    My favorite track on his album, this song totally fits his persona at that time; living day to day in a haze and very reminiscent of Jimi Hendrix's "Purple Haze"...

  59. b.... ....

    @superzapper easy there bro..none of us "13" care if we were wrong or not...his album still stunk, and ace's was still the best one..and it doesn't take years out of our lives if we did in fact, we got it wrong..he stinks and that's the point ..lol !

  60. s.... ....

    @blica1 It was "When you wish upon a Star" not somewhere over the rainbow . 13 twats all wrong

  61. s.... ....

    @jannyrcobs really . over in the UK Pauls and Aces were the ones to have . Pauls is actually a perfect rock album . pity his last one was utter shit.

  62. F.... ....

    space ace ..hell yea..

  63. B.... L....

    My buddy and I teamed up to buy these records, I got Ace and Gene's, and he got Peter's and Paul's. I'd say I made out better in that deal - Ace's album is as nearly good as most Kiss albums to be honest. He's the only that's still his Kiss-self on the solo record, which means his true self, do of course it's the best of the four. Every one of his songs for Kiss was a classic & one of the three or four best on its album. He is and always has been the coolest one. Sorry Gene. You know it's true.

    B.... L....

    Thats funny...our neighborhood was the same..I had Ace, Chris had Peter Criss, Bob had Gene, and Dustin had Paul...the late 70's was awesome!

  64. S.... ....

    Classic song, flawless album. Every song rocks. I love this song particularly because it rocks out, has a trippy rhythm and Ace's voice is so good. He sounds like Vinnie Barbarino when he sings "firewater caused the blaze". Just so happy and boisterous. His voice is great on the whole album, but I think it's especially good on this one. I can listen to this whole album beginning to end and never want it to end. Very happy, cheerful record. Ace is so under-rated.

  65. r.... p....

    fuck ya ......

  66. r.... ....

    Still playing this all the time!!! Guitar riffs are awesome on his solo album. The best talent to grace the KISS stage!!!

  67. j.... ....

    When they came out in '78, Ace's and Gene's were the solo albums to own. I don't remember anyone in my neighbourhood/school owning copies of Paul's and Peter's. To this day, I have never actually heard a single number off those LPs!

  68. J.... M....

    this song reminds me of ballroom blitz from waynes world

  69. r.... ....

    ACE kicked ass on this album!!!! Gene was pissed becauce he had no musical skills!!!!

  70. G.... ....

    ACES! solo record is probably the best record any KISS member has done together or solo!

  71. P.... Z....

    @TurdFurggison Lol.

  72. B.... ....

    If you listen to all the solo albums IT IS CLEAR who had the most talent!

  73. T.... ....

    THIS ALBUM TAUGHT ME SKUNKS ARE BLIND!

  74. t.... ....

    you guys art is art so what if people have chemical problems-this is borderline progressive rock-hey we all have our problems.Who the fuck are we to judge others --remember that-all you folks do on here is squabble -just listen to the the music and quite comparing each others views and people--get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  75. 3.... ....

    the powers behind the curtain make things happen. KISS

  76. K.... ....

    @xxxxxxrockxxxxxx
    I missed Ace in london and donnington... Even when I was across the pond in New York at the same time as Ace I managed to miss him. One day Ace! ONE DAY!

  77. r.... ....

    BLOWS YOUR ASS OFF THE CHAIR!!!!!

  78. D.... D....

    God I love the hell out of this rightous song ,how true how true it is....lol Rock on !!!I was......wiped out !!

  79. S.... M....

    @newyork39904 that is bullshit! Tommy could only help ACE tie his shoes ! for me.

  80. r.... ....

    ACE played all guitars & bass on his solo album plus singing & recording it!!!! ACE ROCKS!!!!

  81. 7.... ....

    @newyork39904 It is true, but that's no slight on Ace. Unless you constantly practice songs that you've learned or written, you will forget them for the most part. Even Eddie Van Halen's kid showed Ed shit he was forgetting before they went on tour with Dave in '08. It's no big deal.

  82. J.... M....

    @borismaloo you are gay

  83. J.... M....

    I LOVE RATS!!

  84. x.... ....

    that tommy helped him relearn the songs? well ace was playing his stuff when he left KISS..so you don't play a song for a while you're bound to forget it

  85. R.... ....

    you guys talk like Ace Frehely is better than KISS he was a part of KISS too you know! its not like he's better and talented than the rest of em' he was a part of KISS. Allthough he was the most talented

    R.... ....

    You contradicted the crap out of yourself with this post nine years ago and you probably still do it daily.

  86. t.... ....

    When the 4 solo albums came out it was real obvious real quick where the talent and song writing from the start came from...... its all right here!

  87. s.... ....

    ummm yeahhhh......

    sorry dude i don't live in southern states......

  88. I.... M....

    Ace is an awesome songwriter

  89. z.... ....

    thunderstruck665, i guess your right , in some ways , but kiss will always be my favorite band, i was alive when the albums came out , you probably werent even born yet , but thats another story.

  90. s.... ....

    thought i read somewhere he'll be touring in the new year for anomaly so i'm keeping my fingers crossed!

  91. x.... ....

    he came to milwaukee but i missed it which really freakin sucked

  92. s.... ....

    my bro got me turned on to kiss when i was 3 and ace has always been my favourite....

    to me it's obvious where the talent was with kiss...yeah gene's a marketing genius, but ace had the talent...not knocking paul, because he's pretty awesome too (and a sweetheart as well ^.^)

    ace's new album fucking blew me away and i'm really hoping he'll come to toronto to play 'cause i'll be there for sure!! ^.^

  93. t.... ....

    I loved this song and album when it came out.......Shame that Gene and Paul didnt even let him play with them during the Hall of fame induction show!

  94. d.... ....

    @thunderstruck665 AMEN !!!!!!!

  95. z.... ....

    ace and peter never say the really hurtful stuff that gene,,,,, and well actually paul does't say bad shit , but I still think they should be in the band right now!!!!

    z.... ....

    zr24X4ROCKS how bout

  96. D.... D....

    Love Anton Fig's Drumming

  97. C.... G....

    ACE ACE ACE! I just bought Anomoly online, and look forward to receiving it. Been an Ace fan since 1976.

  98. M.... E....

    this is one of the most underated albums

  99. T.... ....

    I'm a big Kiss fan but I'm also a realist. I liked Ace's solo the best because it rocked. Ace was a better musician than Gene or Paul yet they always knock him when they are asked why they booted him. "He didn't grow musically." HAHAHAHHA Such tools. But in Kiss, Gene was the alpha-male and you either bent over or you got run out. So, I wonder what Paul was doing? HEHEHEH

  100. x.... ....

    well Peter's song tossin and turnin was on full house but the person who put that on there was probably a fan of Peter though
