Fire Brigade Lyrics by The Move

The Best of The Move

1968

[Verse 1]
Cast your mind back ten years
To the girl who's next to me in school
If I put my hand upon her leg
She'd hit me with a rule
Though tomorrow won't be long
You're gonna have to play it cool

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You've been fascinated by her
She could set the place on fire

[Chorus]
Run and get the fire brigade
Get the fire brigade
See the buildings start to really burn
(Ooh) Get the fire brigade
Get the fire brigade
If you jump, you've got to wait your turn

[Verse 2]
Friends all seem to laugh
I feel I have to make a compromise
Try to reassure myself
My head must need some exercise
Half past ten in the morning
She just took me by surprise

[Pre-Chorus 2]
True, she set the place on fire
You've been fascinated by her

[Chorus]
Run and get the fire brigade
Get the fire brigade
See the buildings start to really burn
(Ooh) Get the fire brigade
Get the fire brigade
If you jump, you've got to wait your turn

[Bridge]
The lights across the street
Throw a rainbow in her hair
I'd love you all to meet her
I'll be there, I'll be there

[Verse 3]
Notice that my eyes have been
A misty place since Saturday
Brings a feeling we might need
The fire engines anyway
Though tomorrow won't be long
We're gonna have to play it cool

[Pre-Chorus 3]
You've been fascinated by her
She could set the place on fire

[Chorus]
Run and get the fire brigade
Get the fire brigade
See the buildings start to really burn
(Ooh) Get the fire brigade
Get the fire brigade
If you jump, you've got to wait your turn
