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
These 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 myself out in the mirror I wanna change my
clothes my hair my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere just sitting 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 sparks
This gun's for hire, even if you 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 baby this laugh's on me

Stay on the streets of this town and they'll be
carving you up alright
They say you got to 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 give me just one look

You can't start a fire, you can't start a fire without sparks
This gun's for hire, even if you just dancing in the dark
Can't start a fire, can't start a fire without sparks
This gun's for hire, even if you just dancing in the dark

Even if you dancing in the dark
Even if you dancing in the dark
Even if you dancing in the dark

Even if you dancing in the dark
Even if you dancing in the dark
Even if you dance, dance dance, dance

Whooo, whooo, whooo
