Hands up who wants to die!
Have you heard how sonnys burning
Like some bright erotic star?
And he lights up the proceedings
And raises the temperature.
Flame on! flame on!
Someday Ill cut him down yeah uh
Now Ive seen to sonnys burning
Yeah someday I think Ill cut him down
But it can get so co-cold in here
And he gives off such an evil heat.
Flame on! flame on!
Hai-hai hail my incubatic incubator.
Now pay witness to sonnys burning
Warming the damp and rotten seed
Warming the damp and rotten seed
That blooms into the demon flower
Now both fire and flowers consume me.
Flame on! flame on!
Evil heat is running through me (through me)
Flame on! now flame on!
Evil heat is running through me uh! uh!
Sonnys burning pits into me
Flame on! yeah flame on!
Sonnys burning holes into me
Dont interrupt! dont interrupt!
Flame on! flame on!
Through me yeah through me
Dont interrupt! flame on!
Flame on! flame on!
