Now come and stand
See the sights and warm your hands
And fan the flame inside of me


Been burning all my life
So come and set my house alight

Yeah, come and set my spirit free

Now all is ashes

This moribund parade of $$#es
So shake it one more time for me


So take these matches off of me
And set yourself on fire


Fire

Coffee at the floor

It seemed just like the day before
The waiter winked and smiled at me


The couple at the bar
He burned his britches, she burned her bra
Now somebody has burned the car


Sulphur in the air
And cracks appearing everywhere

Don't try to stop it, don't you dare

Now see,

That everything must fall
That we may live again


So take these matches off of me
And set yourself on fire


Fire
Fire
Fire


Now it's so clear to me
This bonfire of the vanities

So come on everybody, scream

A purifying flame

And you and I can take the blame
A spirit that cannot be tamed


Now see,
That everything must fall
That we may live again


So take these matches off of me
And set yourself on fire


Fire
Fire

Fire
Fire
Fire

Fire
Fire
