Naked Flame — текст песни (midnight oil)

This is a mad house, she goes straight for the palm
You`ll be luck to make it till Tuesday

I say You must be joking, the idea`s absurd
But the picture`s hanging on her every word
But she comes right back, her black velvet cat
Has gone smiled all over the carpet
He says I know my rights, I`ve got nothing to say
But he cried all night on the night `n` day

I`ve seen the naked flame
And I`m turning my eyes away

Yes it`s a mad house, the minister shouts
But his words drown out in the crowd
He says I open my mouth and some idiot speaks
So he strikes the service for another two weeks
Then the party`s over, it`s a free-for-all
I`m under the table, I got my foot in the door
Well she`s a natural leader, and she`s bound to win
She`s just waiting for the burning to begin

I`ve seen the naked flame
It`s gonna burn me again
I`m dying down in the rain
And I`m turning my eyes away
