Midnight Oil - ***** Flame Lyrics
This is a mad house, she goes straight for the palmYoull be luck to make it till tuesdayI say you must be joking, the ideas absurdBut the pictures hanging on her every wordBut she comes right back, her black velvet catHas gone smiled all over the carpetHe says I know my rights, Ive got nothing to sayBut he cried all night on the night n dayIve seen the ***** flameAnd Im turning my eyes awayYes its a mad house, the minister shoutsBut his words drown out in the crowdHe says I open my mouth and some idiot speaksSo he strikes the service for another two weeksThen the partys over, its a free-for-allIm under the table, I got my foot in the doorWell shes a natural leader, and shes bound to winShes just waiting for the burning to beginIve seen the ***** flameIts gonna burn me againIm dying down in the rainAnd Im turning my eyes away(rotsey/hirst/moginie)
