Kings of Leon released their fourth album later the month on this release, their second in successive years, and by rights the Nashville quartet would’ve be running short on ideas by now. Their brand of whiskey-stained Southern rock could only be entertaining for so long, right?
Well, actually, wro...
[Verse 1]
Lay where you're layin'
Don't make a sound
I know they're watchin'
They're watchin'
All the commotion
The kiddie-like play
It has people talkin'
Talkin'
[Chorus]
You
Your sex is on fire
[Verse 2]
The dark of the alley
The breakin' of day
Head while I'm drivin'
I'm drivin'
Soft lips are open
Them knuckles are pale
Feels like you're dyin'
You're dyin'
[Chorus]
You
Your sex is on fire
Consumed
With what's to transpire
[Verse 3]
Hot as a fever
Rattlin' bones
I could just taste it
Taste it
If it's not forever
If it's just tonight
Oh, we're still the greatest
The greatest, the greatest
[Chorus]
You
Your sex is on fire
You
Your sex is on fire, ah
Consumed
With what's to transpire
And you
Your sex is on fire
Consume
With what's to transpire

There’s always been an element of sex in our music, so I thought I’d just wrap it all up in one song and be done with the sex for the rest of the record. I can’t believe the label picked it because the lyrics are pretty in-your-face sexual. I think my girlfriend hopes it’s based on her. Maybe it is...
