Guitar by Mike Fonte
Lyrics
I'M ON FIRE
Lizard in a tree
Got nothin’ on me
Reptillian smile
A serpent’s guile
His prey never sees
Oh, I’m on fire
Yeah, I’m on fire
Walk my way
Little girl don’t you know
I’ve got you in my sights
Your scent ignites
This poison dart in my bow
Oh, I’m on fire
Yeah, I’m on fire
It’s treacherous dark
In the jungle, no spark’s there
To keep you from the lecherous way
There’s lizards and snakes
In the mud and the bark
And each step forward
Is a step astray
There’s nowhere to run
You’ve got nowhere to hide
Baby you come too far
To turn back now
No matter how hard you’ve tried
Oh, I’m on fire
Yeah, I’m on fire
I’m on fire
I’m on fire
I’m on fire
I’m on fire
