Story Behind The Song

Two people at opposite ends of a political spectrum getting together at the risk of an explosive situation.

Lyrics

Fire and Gasoline © 2006 Michele St. Pierre

We’re too hot to handle. We’re too hot to combine
I look right into your smoldering eyes
And I see fire and gasoline, oh I see fire and gasoline
You put us together and mix us around
And we could burn this city down.
Our love might burn this city down.

Some things shouldn’t oughta be together.
Some things are just bound to scald.
I look right into your smoldering eyes
And I see fire and water make steam.
I see fire and water make steam
You put us together and mix us around
And we just might cause a scene.
Ahh you know we’re gonna cause a scene.

(Chorus)
Hot, hot, hot. Can’t stop this violent yearning
Stop, stop, stop. We gotta stop this burning.
Hot, hot, hot. You know the circumstances.
Stop, stop, stop. The price for love’s sweet dances.

Things aren’t getting much better.
Things are getting out of control.
Add a real dark secret and a hidden code
And things could really start to explode.
You know that things are gonna start to explode
I look right into your smoldering eyes and I see
Fire and gasoline, oh I see fire and gasoline.
You put us together and mix us around
And we could burn this city down
Our love might burn this city down

(Chorus)
