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 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 trying 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 crying over a broken heart
This gun`s for hire
Even if we`re just dancing in the dark
You can`t start a fire worrying about your little world falling 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
