Children be careful when playing with matches
Everything's dry and ready to burn Lord Lord

The neighbors are cooking out in the backyard
Just two doors down ain't nobody home (they're all busy)

Building fires strong desires
We've got to be careful there's too many people
Just down the street building fires

Now smoking in bed can sure burn your house down

Specially if you're there with somebody's wife

Temptation knocks and most people answers just neighborly lovers unsatisfied
Building fires strong desires

One two three stop it's time to change partners

You go get your good thing and I'll go get mine

Temptation knocks and most people answers
Just neighborly lovers yearning for more and more
Building fires strong desires
We've got to be careful there's too many people
Just down the street building fires
