Lyrics
Naked Flame
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Jumpin' over fences stealing clothes
Goin' down drain pipes followin' my nose
Goin' underneath where the slow ones go
Throwin' rocks at houses
Breakin' window
Runnin' down the street in the pourin' rain
Burnin' down the houses in the neighbourhood again
Stealin' pet food draggin' my chain
bathin' in the light of the naked flame
You see our enemies are many and my friends are few
But look into my eyes I'll fall in love with you
Checkin' out my brothers for the taste of glue
Hangin' round the pub house buy a schooner of New
Mamma was criminally insane
No one new her troubles and no-one new her pain
But she gave me something that I will never lose again
And that was the love of the naked flame
Oh here we go again
Oh where there's smoke there's flames
So when we steal your things
Break into your home
I can reassure you, you are not alone
Many many people the proof can be shown
There's no such thing as safety zones
Oh here we go again
Oh where there's smoke there's flames
