*****

I get up in the evening
And I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the morning
I got to bed feeling the same way
I ain't got nothing but tired
Man, I'm just tired and hard 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 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
C'mon baby the 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
C'mon now baby, gimmie 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

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
