I get up in the evening and I ain't got nothing to say I come home in the morning, I go to bed feelin' 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 just keep getting clearer, radio's on and I'm moving 'round my place* I check my look in the mirror, I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face Man, I ain't getting nowhere, I'm just living 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 on baby this laugh's on me
Stay on the streets of this town and they'll be carving you up alright They say you gotta stay hungry, hey baby, I'm just about starving tonight I'm dying for some action, I'm sick of sitting 'round here tryin' to write this book I need a love reaction, come on now baby gimme just one look
You can't start a fire sitting 'round cryin' over a broken heart This gun's for hire even if we're just dancing 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 dancing in the dark Even if we're just dancing in the dark Even if we're just dancing in the dark Even if we're just dancing in the dark Hey baby!
