well if I spell it out if i get it out will you hear me when I tell you about what I have to say before it gets to late its not as easy as they said it would be but there's something right about u and me something right about u and me
well you're the color of a burning book you're the color of a sideways look from an undercover cop in a comic book you're the color of a storm in june you're the color of the moon you're the color of the night that's right the color of a fight you move me you're the color of the colored part of the wizard of oz movie
were like romeo and Juliet were like 40 dogs cigarettes we're like good times that haven't happened yet but will i can tell you where were gonna be when the whole world falls into the sea we'll be livin' ever after and happily
all the boys taking you for granted tell you what they want with their eyes all slanted. I don't like the way they look at you . I don't like the way they talk too. I don't like the way they talk to you. I wouldn't let them talk to you like that.
put'um up high reach for the ceiling tell them I don't walk damnit im reelin' it aint no crime its just dreams we're stealing anything to get more of this feeling
you take the high and ill take the low well get their before you know we aint got no time to waste we got too much life to taste
were like romeo and Juliet 40 dogs and cigarettes we're like good times that haven't happened yet but will i can tell you where were gonna be when the whole world falls into the sea we'll be livin' ever after happily
sometimes you remind me of a moonbeam on the ghost of a moonbeam out on the beach down by the coast slip into the nil like the most beautiful thing ive ever seen
come out tonight come out with me baby well throw the careful into the crazy turn the sky black into a sky blue turn a closed shade into a woo hoo what I say is true make a fire i've gotta burn a few, make a fire i've gotta burn a few we can do what we want to do
were like romeo and Juliet were like 40 dogs cigarettes we're like good times that haven't happened yet but will i can tell you where we're gonna be when the whole world falls into the sea we'll be livin' ever after happily
well you're the color of a burning book you're the color of a sideways look from an undercover cop in a comic book you're the color of a storm in june you're the color of the moon you're the color of the night that's right the color of a fight you move me you're the color of the colored part of the wizard of oz movie

So I guess he's saying you need to take chances to turn that spark into a flame...
"Clouds that hang up in the sky
Lies wallow in the light
We'll be okay, we'll be alright
Like a blind man in the night
Like a flower in the sun
Like a dog when the day is done
Like a bear of the forest in the rainy meadow
I might be all wet but feelin' no pain
You take money and I'll take the jewels
You got the clock and I got the tools
Don't worry 'bout the cops, Got a getaway plan
Tell 'em your with the band
I'll be you're friendly neighborhood Spiderman
Ain't no junkie... just hangin' with the monkeys"
The Red Dog beer company used to sell their beer in 40 ounce bottles (college days), which were the cheapest buzz you could buy and went together perfectly with a cheap pack of smokes, if you were a poor college kid.
Also the line " We'll turn a close shave into a 'Woo-Hoo!' "
Have you ever done something really stupid because you were young and in love, like trying to beat a train, and the car almost stalls just as you fly over the tracks; as the train roars past, its horn blaring, you look at each other and yell Woo-Hoo! because the adrenaline reminds you how great it is to be alive. that's my interpretation.
And I swear he sings "you're the color of a verdant brook..." because it evokes the image of a very green, pastoral, romantic place of peace and serenity.
I also agree that it's "make a fire, gotta burn a few," although I can't imagine what he means by that.
