[Verse 1]

Stumped the old lady with words she'd never heard

Kinda' go crazy when I'm around her

I see who you are and I know what you want

I know what you have and I know you have not

I met her last summer - was the last summer for me

[Chorus]

Go on catch fire when you are happy

Go on catch fire when you are mad

If you desire make it a double

And I know the troubles you think you have

Go on catch fire when you are happy

Go on catch fire when you are mad

If you desire make it a double

And I know the troubles you think you have

[Verse 2]

Who in the world would take someone there?

With eyes kinda' crossed and a nose way up in the air

I see who it is when you turn the light on

Couldn't pretend, no, I couldn't hang on

Will the kind owner make a loner of me?

[Chorus]

Go on catch fire when you are happy

Go on catch fire when you are mad

If you desire make it a double

And I know the troubles you think you have

Go on catch fire when you are happy

Go on catch fire when you are mad

If you desire make it a double

And I know the troubles you think you have

[Verse 3]

Everyone knows you can't make it cold

Without a cinder a spark will never grow

I see who you are and I know what you want

I know what you have and I know you have not

Met her last summer - was the last summer for me

[Chorus]

Go on catch fire when you are happy

Go on catch fire when you are mad

If you desire make it a double

And I know the troubles you think you have

Go on catch fire when you are happy

Go on catch fire when you are mad

If you desire make it a double

And I know the troubles you think you have
