She'll give you everything
Except the very thing
Then force her brand in molten lead
You burn so slowly
It would make a holy man
Fall to his knees and beg
She gets you wishin'
You were doin' the dishin'
While they play that song all night and day
She'll slug you senseless
And remove all defences
'Til you shine like the alpha ray
But walk on fire
She's a liar
I'm makin' plans how to steal away from here
The things I desire
Walk on fire
She's a liar
And I'm just a pretty man who can't say no
Yeah, ask the social workers and they'll tell you so
It gets so goddamned freaky that you can't let go
Who's talkin' clean and walkin' dirty
You want a reason
But there are no reasons
Why the Earth has fallen from the sky
And if it's only
Just to make you lonely
So you know when to do or die
'Cause she'd find splendour
That she'd always render
Well, her number's just a call away
A baleful night
Well, I say that's all right
'Cause she shines like the alpha ray
Walk on fire
She's a liar
I'm makin' plans how to steal away from here
The things I desire
Walk on fire
She's a liar
And I'm just a pretty man who can't say no
Yeah, ask the social workers and they'll tell you so
It gets so goddamned freaky that you can't let go
Well, take the big time to the city
Walk on fire
She's a liar
I'm makin' plans how to steal away from here
The things I desire
Walk on fire
She's a liar
And I'm just a pretty man who can't say no
Yeah, ask my social workers and they'll tell you so
It gets so goddamned freaky that you can't let go
Who's talkin' clean and walkin' dirty
All right
