Fireman — текст песни (Steve Kilbey)

Fireman, I didnt expect to see you again

The fever burning, hatred in flames

I guess we just keep playing these games

Hush now baby, dont you cry

Momma gonna build you a great big fire

And if that fire cant melt your bones

You wont be smoking all alone

Its the fireman

A heat haze summer falls all over this land

The dry roots crackle, the smoldering sun

Now youve got to suffer for everyone

Hush now baby dont you weep

Daddys gonna get you well away from this heat

And if that heat still singe your hair

Theres just one man who can take you there

And if that man has turned to ash

Daddys gonna change things with the lure of cash

And if that money cant soothe your burns

Theres just one man who can make you learn

Its the fireman

I didnt expect to see you again

The fever burning, hatred in flames

I guess we just keep playing these games

Fireplace, fireside

Fire when you see the whites of their eyes

Fire ahead, fire below

Fire such-and-such and so-and-so

Firewood, firewheel

Fire extinguished, fire and steel

Fire a shot when you need to feel

Fire one up for after the meal
