Firedrill Lyrics by Split Enz

Rear Enz

1992

Crash diet
I got my ear to the ground
And I got a notion that we should have a firedrill
(yeah-hey)
Black market, must be losing her
And I got a notion, that we should have a firedrill
(yeah-hey)

Ooh firedrill
Ooh firedrill

Skyscraper, come crumbling down
The men with the muscle
Will soon be muscling on the ground (go)

Ooh firedrill
Ooh firedrill

Crash diet
Must be the mood of the times
And I've got a notion
That we - should - have - a

We should have, we should have a firedrill
We should have, we should be prepared

Ooh Firedrill (I'll get them when they're fast asleep)
Ooh Firedrill, Ooh Firedrill (they'll be jumping off a fire escape)
Ooh Firedrill, Ooh Firedrill (help me get some practice in)
Ooh Firedrill (before the mighty titan wakes)
Ooh Fire, Fire, Fire, Firedrill
