Pyro Sets A Wildfire

[Verse 1]
I never meant to trip the minefield hidden here in paradise
(Put stink weed in the bouquet)
I never meant to fire a lethal weapon or to terrorize
(Put poison in the buffet)

[Chorus]
If played my role as diplomat
You knew it wasn’t just an act
I couldn’t stand to stand in back
A faded little wallflower
I’ve maybe taken too much on
Naivete and youth is gone
But at least the juice is still turned on
I’m dancing on a live wire
I’ve summoned up a thunder cloud
But I always meant to do you proud
Still, certain things are not allowed
Like setting off a wildfire
Wildfire

[Interlude]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh huh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh huh

[Verse 2]
I never meant to cut my tender fingers on your angel hair
(Put sawdust in the gas tank)
I never meant to hide tacks in the cushion of your mercy chair
(Make a brother walk the gangplank)

[Chorus]
If played my role as diplomat
You knew it wasn’t just an act
I couldn’t stand to stand in back
A faded little wallflower
I’ve maybe taken too much on
Naivete and youth is gone
But at least the juice is still turned on
I’m dancing on a live wire
I’ve summoned up a thunder cloud
But I always meant to do you proud
Still, certain things are not allowed
Like setting off a wildfire
Wildfire

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
I never meant to do you wrong
(I never meant to trip the minefield hidden here in paradise)
I never meant to cause anybody’s harm
(I never meant to fire a lethal weapon or to terrorize)
I never meant to cause you any pain
(I never meant to cut my tender fingers on your angel hair)
I never meant to bring you any shame
(I never meant to hide tacks in the cushion of your mercy chair)

[Chorus]
If played my role as diplomat
You knew it wasn’t just an act
I couldn’t stand to stand in back
A faded little wallflower
I’ve maybe taken too much on
Naivete and youth is gone
But at least the juice is still turned on
I’m dancing on a live wire
I’ve summoned up a thunder cloud
But I always meant to do you proud
Still, certain things are not allowed
Like setting off a wildfire
Wildfire

[Chorus]
If played my role as diplomat
You knew it wasn’t just an act
I couldn’t stand to stand in back
A faded little wallflower
I’ve maybe taken too much on
Naivete and youth is gone
But at least the juice is still turned on
I’m dancing on a live wire
I’ve summoned up a thunder cloud
But I always meant to do you proud
Still, certain things are not allowed
Like setting off a wildfire
