Lyrics

Sparky

Try me now you know I've been waiting for ya
Sleepless now 'cause I can't get myself down

Do you want a warning?
Hold me 'til the morning
Do you feel me?

Flying off the handle
Lighting up a candle
All for you

If I'm going up
You know you're going up with me too
Mmm

It's three in the morning, and I'm coming in hot (ooh)
Back in the city, and I'm here for the jackpot
Oh, oh, oh
You wanna start a fire?

You can't tell me nothing, you don't wanna start me
If I pipe up, it's gonna be sparky, you know
I wanna start a fire
We're gonna start a fire

Rest those eyes
You know she ain't waiting for ya
Time goes by
And she's bringing you down with her

Tighten up your collar for another dollar
Push it harder
You wanted it badly
Rather than be happy, safe to say
I never could take anyone's advice, anyway (yeah)

It's three in the morning, and I'm coming in hot (ooh)
Back in the city, and I'm dying to go off
Oh, oh, oh
You wanna start a fire?

You can't tell me nothing, you don't wanna start me
If I pipe up, it's gonna be sparky, you know
I wanna start a fire
We're gonna start a fire
It's sparky

Give me fucking all that
You can make a comeback
Nobody can take you
Better and you know that

I'm up on the marquee
You don't wanna start me
When I'm on top, baby
You can call me sparky

It's three in the morning, and I'm coming in hot (ooh)
Back in the city, and I'm dying to go off
Oh, oh, oh
You wanna start a fire?

You can't tell me nothing, you don't wanna start me (ooh)
If I pipe up, it's gonna be sparky, you know
I wanna start a fire
We're gonna start a fire
