I wake up in the evening
Man, I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the morning
I go to bed, feeling the same way
I ain't nothing but tired
Man, I'm just tired and I'm bored with myself
Hey there, baby, I could use just a little help

Messages keep getting clearer
Radio's on and I'm moving around my place
I check my look in the mirror
Wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere
I'm just living in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere
Oh baby I just know there is
You can't start a fire, can't start a fire without a spark

Stay on the streets of this town
And they'll be carving you up alright
They say you gotta stay hungry
Hey baby, I'm just about starving tonight
I'm dying for some action
I'm sick of sitting around here trying to write this book
I need a love reaction
Come on, baby gimme just one look

You can't start a fire, sitting 'round and crying over a broken heart
This gun's for hire, even if we're just dancing in the dark

You can't start a fire, worryin' about your little world falling apart
This gun's for hire, even if we're just dancing in the dark
