Default My car is shocking me when its charging off a wall charger. Is something wrong?

I have the front end off, on jack stands, the back end on the ground with rubber contacting the ground, and am charging the battery. Whenever I brush up against the chassis or another steel part, I can feel the current running through me. Is something wrong with grounding inside the car? Is this why my battery dies freqently and quickly?

Thanks
