The face is built of cinders
And painc tears thro' your silhouette
As your squeezed by burning fingers
And he's crackling in our colours
With teeth of gelignite
When he sighs his song and pirouettes
Thro'a dance of dynamite
We are fireworks - slowly, glowing
Bold and bright
We are fireworks - burning shapes
Into the night
His fuel is our frustration
And dreams begin to ache
And all the while we wear a party smile
And happily we shiver
Happily we shake
Oh shake, shake, shake
We are fireworks - slowly, glowing
Bold and bright
We are fireworks - burning shapes
Into the night
Twist and turn - burn, burn, burn
Twist and turn - burn, baby, burn
The Body is wrapped is shadow The face is built of cinders And painc tears thro' your silhouette As your squeezed by burning fingers And he's crackling in our colours With teeth of gelignite When he sighs his song and pirouettes Thro'a dance of dynamite We are fireworks - slowly, glowing Bold and bright We are fireworks - burning shapes Into the night His fuel is our frustration And dreams begin to ache And all the while we wear a party smile And happily we shiver Happily we shake Oh shake, shake, shake We are fireworks - slowly, glowing Bold and bright We are fireworks - burning shapes Into the night Twist and turn - burn, burn, burn Twist and turn - burn, baby, burn Explain Request ×
