Light Me Up Lyrics

Another day, another trick
Gotta sell that shit off quick
It's about supply and demand
The money's falling from the sky
I'll collect before you die
As a tear falls from my eye

Light me up before you kill me
Cause I ain't going down without a fight my friend
The situation's got me up and reeling
And I don't think I'm ever gonna die

Situation's gone astray
Everybody wants to play
Play with fire but not get burned
There's a tiger in my heart
On these streets I tear apart
Everybody in my way

Light me up before you kill me
Cause I ain't going down without a fight my friend
The situation's got me up and reeling
And I don't think I'm ever gonna die

Got connections in the west
I got threads man of the best
Designer shit you've ever seen
I'm a freakin man of steel
I got lots of sex appeal
Do you wanna make a deal?

Light me up before you kill me
Cause I ain't going down without a fight my friend
The situation's got me up and reeling
And I don't think I'm ever gonna die

No, I don't think I'm ever gonna die...

This, to me, is obviously about playing Vice City...

sounds like the movie scarface to me...sort of....kinda...i like the song.... Maybeit has to do with dieing with your boots on, as dieing like an animal.

It's the follow-up / homage to Buenos Tardes. Also, to Bananas & Blow. I think LMU isn't as strong as either previous bossa nova song, but it's still a great tune. It works perfectly on the Friends EP, which is on many levels (aside from being too short -- an EP) one of their best albums in years. Anyone who's listened to their catalogue can clearly see transcendence unfolding here.
