I get up in the evening And I ain't got nothin' to say I come home in the mornin' I go to bed feelin' the same way I ain't nothin' 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 dancin' in the dark Messages keep gettin' clearer Radio's on and I'm movin' round the place I check my look in the mirror Wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face Man, I ain't gettin' nowhere I'm just livin' in a dump like this There's somethin' happenin' somewhere Baby, I just know it 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 dancin' in the dark You sit around gettin' older There's a joke, here's some wine, it's on me I shake this world off my shoulders Come on, baby, the love's on me Stay on the streets of this town And they'll be carvin' you up, alright They say you gotta stay hungry Hey, baby, I'm just a fast star in the night I'm tired of some action I'm sick of sittin' around here Tryin' to write this book I need a love reaction Come on, baby, give me just one look You can't start a fire Sittin' around cryin' over a broken heart This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancin' in the dark You can't start a fire Worryin' about your little world fallin' apart This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancin' in the dark Even if we're just dancin' in the dark Even if we're just dancin' in the dark Even if we're just dancin' in the dark Hey, baby Hey, baby Hey, baby Hey, baby
