Fire In The Hole — текст песни (Steely Dan)

I decline

To walk the line

They tell me that I`m lazy

Worldly wise

I realize

That everybody`s crazy

A woman`s voice reminds me

To serve and not to speak

Am I myself or just another freak



Don`t you know

There`s fire in the hole

And nothing left to burn

I`d like to run out now

There`s nowhere left to turn



With a cough

I shake it off

And work around my yellow stripe

Should I hide

And eat my pride

Or wait until it`s good and ripe

My life is boiling over

It`s happened once before

I wish someone would open up the door



Don`t you know

There`s fire in the hole

And nothing left to burn

I`d like to run out now

There`s nowhere left to turn
