Lyrics

Five Alarm Fire

Iʼm burning up like a five alarm fire
Some like it hot
But if the flames get any higher
If the flames get any higher
Weʼll have a five alarm fire
Look over there
Where the whole thing started
Just a little spark is all it took
All it took is just a little spark
A little spark
Before you know it was a five alarm
Five alarm fire

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la

Shake it up, no time to waste
Youʼve got to stir it up, stir it up
Poetry in motion
Swimming in the ocean
Iʼm turning blue

Weʼve got to give it up
Give it all youʼve got now
Turn it up
Take it to the top now
Light it up, baby, like a five alarm fire
Give it up
La la la la la la la
Turn it up
La la la la la la
Light it up, baby Like a five alarm fire

Can you feel the heat below
Do you feel me, take it slow now
Know when to walk away
Know when to live for the day
Itʼs warm inside

Shake it up
Until the flames grow higher
Stoke it up, stoke it up, baby light my fire Pretend like itʼs the first time
Weʼll have ourselves a good time
good time

Weʼve got to give it up
Give it all youʼve got now
Turn it up
Take it to the top now
Light it up, baby, like a five alarm fire
Give it up
Never gonna stop now
Turn it up
As loud as it will go now
Light it up baby like a five alarm fire
