BABY'S ON FIRE
Brian Eno
INTRO: A  
BbBabyAb's on fire
better throw her in the water
Look at her laughing
like a heifer to the slaughter
Baby's on fire
And all the laughing boys are bitching
waiting for photos
Oh the plot is so bewitching.
BbRescuAbers row row
Do your best to change the subject
Blow the wind blow blow
Lend some assistance to the object
Photographers snip snap
Take your time she's only burning
This kind of experience
Is necessary for her learning
If you'll be my flotsam
I could be half the man I used to
They said you were hot stuff
And that's what baby's been reduced to.
Guitar Solo
BbJuaniAbta and Juan
Very clever with maracas
Making their fortunes
Selling second-hand tobaccos
Juan dances at Chico's
And when the clients are evicted
He empties the ashtrays
And pockets all that he's collected
CODA:   Bb  Ab  
But baby's on fire!
And all the instruments agree that
her temperatures rising
but any idiot would know that

BABY'S ON FIRE

Brian Eno

INTRO:

Bb Ab

Baby's on fire

better throw her in the water

Look at her laughing

like a heifer to the slaughter

Baby's on fire

And all the laughing boys are bitching

waiting for photos

Oh the plot is so bewitching.

Bb Ab

Rescuers row row

Do your best to change the subject

Blow the wind blow blow

Lend some assistance to the object

Photographers snip snap

Take your time she's only burning

This kind of experience

Is necessary for her learning

If you'll be my flotsam

I could be half the man I used to

They said you were hot stuff

And that's what baby's been reduced to.

Guitar Solo

Bb Ab

Juanita and Juan

Very clever with maracas

Making their fortunes

Selling second-hand tobaccos

Juan dances at Chico's

And when the clients are evicted

He empties the ashtrays

And pockets all that he's collected

Bb Ab

CODA:

But baby's on fire!

And all the instruments agree that

her temperatures rising

but any idiot would know that
