Downtown Boys - Dancing in the Dark Lyrics

I wake up in the evening
Well I know you 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
Oh, I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help

You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark

Messages getting clearer
Radio's on and I'm moving around the place
I take a look in the mirror
I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man, I ain't getting nowhere
Well I'm just living in a dump like this
Something happening somewhere
Oh, baby, I just know that there is

You can't start a fire
Can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark

You sit around getting older
There's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
Shake the world off my shoulders
Come on, baby, the laugh's on me

Running the streets of this town
They'll be carving you up all right
Say you gotta stay hungry
Oh, baby, I'm just about starving tonight
I'm dying for some action
Sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book
Need a love reaction
Oh, baby, I just need one look

You can't start a fire
Sitting 'round crying over a broken heart
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Can't start a fire
Worrying about your little world falling apart
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
