Swoon around the fitful flames
With your ham hands
Dance till you don't know your name
And see, son, we're all the same

Keeping it by the fire
Swallowing swirls of dust
Keeping it by the fire
Let's move back to front

Mind the kindled fire
Of his dark heart
Mind the blithering black of day
That comes, and creeps
And steals the play

Keeping it by the fire
Swallowing swirls of dust
Keeping it by the fire
Let's move back to front

Darling, come closer
See this man dancing
He's sick and he's savage
His love is appalling

Darling, come closer
See this man dancing
He's sick and he's savage
His love is appalling
