Flesh & Fire
W.A.S.P. · Inside The Electric Circus [1986]
I'm the picher you're the catcher
I ain't talking bout baseball
You're a sweet switch hitter
I want it all
Aah, if you wanna play the game baby
Aah, wanna play it right now
I can show you how to do it
I'm gonna show you how
Flesh and fire, fire, I want you
Come on give it to me
Burn me with your love
Flesh and fire, fire, I want you
Come on, hurt me honey
I want what it does
Got a wild one on the wire
It's getting hot where I stand
Catch the heat and feel the fire
Yeah, I'm a major league man
We're gonna sweat and touch each other
I wanna feel it alright
We're gonna push it to the limit
We're gonna do it all night
Flesh and fire, fire, I want you
Come on give it to me
Burn me with your love
Flesh and fire, fire, I want you
Come on take me honey
I want what it does
Come on over now and set yourself on down here
Tell me everything that you want
Aow, come on over now and whisper in my ear
Tell me everything that you wanna hear
