Richard Thompson - Fire In The Engine Room Lyrics
Well Luke told Danny, Danny told BetsyBetsy told me and I'm telling youYou'd better stop doing the things you doThere's a fire in the engine roomFire in the engine roomDamp it down or we're all going underRun them hoses, it's smouldering againBetter line up in a human chainThere's a fire in the engine roomFire in the engine roomFire, fire, my heart is bustingYou drive me crazy with the things you sayJealousy's got me and it won't go awayThere's a fire in the engine roomFire in the engine roomAnd I don't know how you come to reasonThat somehow treason isn't treasonIt must be the head-hunting seasonAnd there's room in the old trophy roomShe's making eyes at the fool with the shovelThat son of a grease-gun must be insaneI hose it down and he fans the flamesThere's a fire in the engine roomFire in the engine roomAnd you know how uncertainty can lingerWith a rattlesnake wrapped around your fingerOne day it might wake up and sting youHere's a toast to the bride and the groomOh, fire, fire, my heart is bustingYou drive me crazy with the things you sayJealousy's got me and it won't go awayThere's a fire in the engine roomFire in the engine roomFire in the engine roomFire in the engine room
