"Burn My Candle" lyrics
"Burn My Candle"
Who's got a match for striking
Don't say it all depends
Who wants to help me burn my candle
At both ends
Who's got a light he's hiding
Under a bush or fence
Who wants to help me burn my candle
At both ends
It's possible it may not last a night
While it burns, what a wonderful light
Who'd like to play with fire
After they can make amends
Who wants to help me burn my candle
At both ends
Who doesn't mind a reaper
After he's sown wild oats
Who wants to take a chance and help me
Burn my boats
Who's not a look then leaper
Won't hit warning note
Who wants to take a chance and help me
Burn my boats
It's possible the pace may prove too hot
But then again, it could happen it's not
Who'd like to get in deeper
Not caring if he floats
Who wants to take a chance and help me
Burn my boats
There's S for Scotch
That's so direct
And for straight and simple sex
I for invitation to
A close relationship with you
N for nothing bad, no less
S I N that's sin I guess
Who's got a good ignition
Waiting for dividends
Who wants to help me burn my candle
At both ends
Who's really in condition
Won't mind how much he spends
Who wants to help me burn my candle
At both ends
It may not last
But it's all in the game, my friend
And while it burns
What a fabulous flame
Who has an inhibition
Weaker than he pretends
Who has a notch that's on the handle
Open my door and spurn the scandal
Who wants to help me burn my candle
At both ends
