Everything's on Fire Songtext
von Mark Seymour

If I don′t come home before midnight
And I call out your name in the dark
You'll know that I′ve been tempted
And I'll know that I've got no heart
And I′ll know that I won′t be expected
You'll think we′re drifting apart
I might as well be blowing at the top of the world
When my fingers find your body in the dark


Everything's on fire
Everything′s on fire
Everything's on fire
Everything′s on fire

If I don't come home before midnight
And I can't find the keyhole in the dark
Burn the place down, make it glow like Christmas
The tenderness that′s burning in my heart
If you can′t open your eyes in the morning
If some maniac has been and left his mark
I'll be round to sift through the cinders
Lift the lid and take the thing apart

To all of you feelers and fumblers
Waiting for the fireworks to start
Well it′s all right, it's only the butcher in your heart
