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
Messages keep getting clearer
Radio's on and I'm moving around the place
I check my look in the mirror
Wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man, I ain't getting nowhere
Well, I'm just living in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere
Hey, I just know where it 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 the world off my shoulders
Come on, baby, the laugh's on me
Stay on the streets of this town
And they'll be carving you up all night
They say you gotta stay hungry
Hey, baby, I'm just about starving tonight
I'm dying for some action
I'm sick of sittin' round here trying to write this book
I need a love reaction
Hey, baby, gimme just one look
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
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Thank you.
