I'm on fire and now i think i'm ready to bust a move-check it out i'm rockin' steady, go
Betty won't stop listening to modern rock,
how she hates to be alone..
i try to compensate, her lack of love with coffee cake,
ice cream and a bottle of ten dollar wine,
she says "hey, i rock the haro sport.
i rock the cowgirl blues.
i rock too fast for love, i'm footloose in my velcro shoes.
what's up with will and grace?
i don't get drum and bass,
the future freaks me out."

i'm on fire
and now i think i'm ready
to bust a move,
check it out i'm rockin steady
to the beat in my head that goes oh oh oh oh
i know that she's the only one,
i'd rather waste our time together
yeah, cause we can get down.

betty can't quit carving question marks in my wrist,
"how come we're so alone?"
we waste away the days with nicotine
and television samples,
from an era we hate to admit we embrace.
we fail to represent,
we fail to be content,
we fail at everything we ever even try to attempt.
and so the story goes,
as only betty knows,
it's time to take control!

betty
i need you,
i miss you,
i'm so alone,
without you,
to call up on the weekends with my cellular phone, ohh.
betty it's so hard to relate,
to the whole human race,
i don't know where to begin,
i don't know where to begin,
if we could both find a way,
to do the things that we say,
we might not sit in our rooms,
and drink our daydreams away,
betty i'm a dreamer,
i'm not a vicious schemer,
oh betty won't you-ah, fuck it
I'm on fire
and now i think i'm ready
to bust a move,
check it out i'm rockin steady
to the beat in my head that goes oh oh oh oh
i know that she's the only one,
i'd rather waste our time together
yeah, cause we can get down.
