Fireworks

I once knew a girl
I can't remember her name
But I remember her face
'Cause her sister looked the same

They both left school
But they couldn't find a job
So they said farewell
And stole a small town car

As they were riding by the beach some summer night
The radio shouted out one of those songs
That might just change your life
It went like this

Checkin' in checkin' out
Making love I like watching all your fireworks
I like it when I light those stars in your eyes
Just like fireworks in the sky
Yes it did

Throwing some poems
To the ports and docks
They were sleeping outdoors
Pushing all their luck

They sent me a letter
Full of pills and thrills
Then they both got rich
And moved to Hollywood Hills

Yeah they made lots of money playing folk guitar
'Cause everywhere the boys went crazy
Just to hear these words of art

Checkin' in checkin' out
Take it to the sky
Making love I like watching all your fireworks
I like it when I light those stars in your eyes
Just like fireworks in the sky, fireworks in the sky

They're coming to get you
They're coming to get you now
Coming to get you now
They're coming to get you
Coming to get you now
They're coming to get you now
Right now
Coming to get you now
Coming, they're coming

Checkin' in checkin' out
Take it to the sky
Making love I like watching all your fireworks
I like it when I light those stars in your eyes
Just like fireworks in the sky, fireworks in the sky
Watch the sky!
Watch the sky!
