Pyro Sets a Wildfire Songtext
von The Swirling Eddies

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)

(If) i played my roll as dipolomat
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
Naiveté 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

Yeah yeah yeah yeah uh huh


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

(If) i played my roll 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
Naiveté 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


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)

(If) i played my roll 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
Naiveté 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
