I get up in the evening And I ain't got nothing to say I come home in the morning I go to bed feeling the same way I ain't nothing but tired Man I'm just tired and bored with myself Hey there baby, I could use just a little help You can't start a fire You can't start a fire without a spark This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancing in the dark Message keeps getting clearer Radio's on and I'm moving 'round the place I check my look out in the mirror I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face Man I ain't getting nowhere Just sitting in a dump like this There's something happening somewhere Baby I just know that there is You can't start a fire You can't start a fire without a spark This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancing in the dark You sit around getting older There's a joke here somewhere and it's on me I'll shake this world off my shoulders Come baby the laugh's on me Stay on the streets of this town And they'll be carvin' you up alright They say you got to stay hungry Hey baby I'm just about starving tonight I'm dying for some action I'm sick of sitting 'round here Trying to write this book I need a love reaction Come on now baby give me just one look You can't start a fire Sittin' around cryin' from a broken heart This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancin' in the dark You can't start a fire Worryin' about your little world fallin' apart This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancin' in the dark Hey baby |
