Firecracker

(album: Run, Rose, Run - 2022)

Firecracker, I heard you calling me
Firecracker, that suits me to a T
A tiny stick of dynamite laced with TNT
I'm a firecracker, hot as I can be

Now I'll explode if you insist on lighting up my fuse
If you ignore the danger of breaking all my rules
A raging fire can be ignited from a tiny spark
If you don't pay attention, all hell can blow apart

I'm full of fire and passion, wound tight and aim to please
But if you want to play with fire, be mindful and take heed
Standing up for who I am and all that I believe
Is making me a firecracker, that's just what I'll be

Firecracker, if you can't take the heat
Firecracker, just stay away from me
That pretty much sums it up, so handle cautiously
I'm a hunka, hunka burning stuff, you'll feel the burn from me
(Thank you very much)

Boom-boom, bang-bang, pow-pow-pow
I will blow up in your face right here and right now
Handle with care, with respectability
You can lose a finger if you're pointing it at me

Firecracker, yeah, you can call me that
Firecracker, 'cause I will fight you back
Now I'm not out for trouble, but if it comes around
I'll go at you tooth and nail, there'll be no backing down

Firecracker, more than proud to be
Firecracker, that suits me to a T
A little stick of dynamite laced with TNT
Firecracker, as hot as I can be

Boom-boom, bang-bang, pow-pow-pow
I will blow up in your face right here and right now

Firecracker, handle cautiously
Firecracker, now don't you mess with me
Firecracker, full of TNT
Firecracker, just as hot as I can be

Firecracker, hey, don't you mess with me
'Cause I'm full of P and V
Firecracker
Firecracker, a little stick of dynamite full of TNT
Firecracker, hey, don't you mess, now don't you mess
Don't you mess with me
