Siouxsie and the Banshees — Fireworks

The body is wrapped in shadow The face is built of cinders And panic tears thro' your silhouette As you're squeezed by burning fingers And he's crackling in our colours With teeth of gelignite When he sighs his song and pirouettes Thro' a dance of dynamite We are fireworks - slowly, glowing Bold and bright We are fireworks - burning shapes Into the night Into the night His fuel is our frustration And dreams begin to ache But all the while we wear a party smile And happily we shiver And happily we shake Oh shake, shake, shake We are fireworks - slowly, glowing Bold and bright We are fireworks - burning shapes Into the night We are fireworks Twist and turn - burn, burn, burn Twist and turn - burn, baby, burn
