They call her flame
For obvious reasons
And I’ll admit that it’s frightnin’
Whenever her lightnin’ flashes
Only ashes remain
Don’t get too close
My friends all warned me
And maybe I should’ve learned
By the boys who were burned but the fire
When they played with flame
After all I told myself
She’s a girl of flesh and blood
And I’m a man, yeah, who’s been around
So I got dressed like royalty
And was all for all to see
The king of fool just waitin’ to be crowned
You know the rest, it’s an old old story
I’ve got a new kind of heartburn
And friend if you’re smart learn my lesson
Don’t go messin’ with flame
Don’t go messin’ with flame
Don’t go messin’ with flame
