[Verse 1]
Someone left the cat out
In the rain
Someone left us waiting here
To deal with all the pain
Someone else was caught
Upon the wire
Someone else's life changed
When he felt the fire
[Refrain]
We got no patience
But we get through
We got no patience
But we got you
[Verse 2]
All of the complainers
Shout, "No fair"
All the hurricaners
With their fists up in the air
Someone gave the order:
"Kill the pain"
Someone else ignored her
Left the cat out in the rain
[Pre-Chorus]
One more fire, 'fore I die
One more fire, get me high
[Chorus]
Come on down to the fire (Come on)
Come on down to the flame (Come on)
Leave you problems behind ya (Come on)
Shine on doomsday, shine on doomsday
Shine on down, shine on down, shine on down
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
[Verse 3]
The circle closed in tight
Around the ring
When eagle takes to flight
The scorpion to sting
Someone panicked
Someone threw the switch
We all covered up
Took shelter in the ditch
[Refrain]
We got no patience
But we get through
We got no patience
But we got you
[Verse 4]
All of the complainers
Weren't there
All the hurricaners
Took to flight by sea and air
They all panicked
Melted in the rain
Someone left the cat out
Put a bullet in her brain
[Pre-Chorus]
One more fire, 'fore I die
One more fire, get me high
[Chorus]
Come on down to the fire (Come on)
Come on down to the flame (Come on)
Leave you problems behind ya (Come on)
Shine on doomsday, shine on doomsday
Shine on down, shine on down, shine on down
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
[Interlude]
[Bridge]
I'm losing myself in the rain
I'm losing myself in the pouring pain
I'm going in; I'm not coming out
It's where I've been; I'm not coming out
I'm losing myself in the rain
I'm losing myself in the pouring pain
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Come on down to the fire (Come on)
Come on down to the flame (Come on)
Leave you problems behind ya (Come on)
Shine on doomsday, shine on doomsday
Shine on down, shine on down, shine on down
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
[Outro]
Shine on
