Donald Fagen - Fire in the Hole lyrics

I decline to walk the line They tell me that I'm lazy Worldly wise, I realize That everybody's crazy A woman's voice reminds me To serve and not to speak Am I myself or just another freak? [Chorus] Don't you know There's fire in the hole And nothing left to burn I'd like to run out now There's nowhere left to turn With a cough, I shake it off And work around my yellow stripe Should I hide and eat my pride? Or wait until it's good and ripe? My life is boiling over It's happened once before I wish someone would open up the door [Chorus] Don't you know There's fire in the hole And nothing left to burn I'd like to run out now There's nowhere left to turn [Interlude, bridge] [Chorus] Don't you know There's fire in the hole And nothing left to burn I'd like to run out now There's nowhere left to turn
