Out of the Frying Pan (And Into the Fire)
It's only two o'clock and the temperature's beginning to soarAnd all around the city you see the walking wounded and the living deadIt's never been this hot and I've never been so boredAnd breathing is just no fun anymoreThen I saw you like a summer dreamAnd you're the answer to every prayer that I ever saidI saw you like a summer dreamAnd you're the answer to every prayer that I ever saidYou can feel the pulse of the pavement racing like a runaway horseThe subways are sizzling and the skin of the streets is gleaming with sweatI've seen you sitting on the steps outsideAnd you were looking so restless and reckless and lostI think it's time for you to come insideI'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forgetI think it's time for you to come insideI'll be waiting here with something that you'll never forgetCome on, come on and there'll be no turning backYou were only killing time and it'll kill you right backCome on, come on, it's time to burn up the fuseYou got nothing to do and even less to loseYou got nothing to do and even less to loseSo wander down to the ancient hallway, taking the stairs only one at a timeFollow the sound of my heartbeat nowI'm in the room at the top, you're at the end of the lineSo open the door and lay down on the bed, the sun is just a ball of desireAnd I wanna take you out of the frying pan (and into the fire)SongtexteOut of the frying pan (and into the fire)Out of the frying pan and into the fireAnd I wanna take you out of the frying pan (and into the fire)Out of the frying pan (and into the fire)Out of the frying pan and into the fireAnd into the fire, fire, fire, and into the fire, fire, fireAnd into the fire, fire, fire, and into the fireIt's only two o'clock and the temperature's beginning to soarAnd all around the city you see the walking wounded and the living deadIt's never been this hot and I've never been so boredAnd breathing is just no fun anymoreThen I saw you like a summer dreamAnd you're the answer to every prayer that I ever saidI saw you like a summer dreamAnd you're the answer to every prayer that I ever saidchorusAnd into the, and into the, and into theAnd into the fire, fire, fire, and into the fire, fire, fireAnd into the fire, fire, fire, and into the fire Aus Songtexte Mania
