Aspiring Fires Lyrics
Baby, so you think you know crazy
I think you know what you know,
But what you know you don't know for sure
Baby, you wanna see me crazy
Well I show you what that's like,
And then I wave goodbye as you run for your life
A little advice for aspiring fires again
Put it out if you don't get a little wild
Drag and track it get it right, you don't got the do, well it just to lose you mind
You gotta be kiddin' me right, ayee ayee yeah
Maybe, you're watching too much TV, (ooh)
Because crazy in the box, is everything that crazy's not
A little advice for aspiring fires again
Put it out if you don't get a little wild
Drag and track it get it right, you don't got the do, well it just to lose your mind
I'm losing up my mind
I'm losing my mind again
Aspiring fires a friend
Not to try to feel it crazy
A little advice for aspiring fires again
Put it our if you don't get a little wild
Drag and track it get it right, you don't got the do, well it just to lose your mind
You gotta be kiddin' me right, ayee ayee yeah
Baby, you wanna see me crazy
Baby, you wanna see me crazy
Ooh (you gotta be kiddin' me right) ayee ayee yeah
Well I show you what that's like
And then I wave goodbye as you run for your life
I think you know what you know,
But what you know you don't know for sure
Well I show you what that's like,
And then I wave goodbye as you run for your life
Put it out if you don't get a little wild
Drag and track it get it right, you don't got the do, well it just to lose you mind
You gotta be kiddin' me right, ayee ayee yeah
Because crazy in the box, is everything that crazy's not
Put it out if you don't get a little wild
Drag and track it get it right, you don't got the do, well it just to lose your mind
I'm losing up my mind
Aspiring fires a friend
Not to try to feel it crazy
Put it our if you don't get a little wild
Drag and track it get it right, you don't got the do, well it just to lose your mind
You gotta be kiddin' me right, ayee ayee yeah
Baby, you wanna see me crazy
Ooh (you gotta be kiddin' me right) ayee ayee yeah

I agree with davidicus's correction of the lyrics. I think this song is about a couple, in which one of the partners is asking for more excitement in the relationship. The song is sung by the second partner, who's trying to explain his interpretation of acting more wild and spontaneous (more crazy), and basically is saying to his/her partner that they don't really know what's that all about, how to achieve it, and what effects it could lead to:
"Baby, so you think you know crazy I think you know what you know, But what you know you don't know for sure
Baby, you wanna see me crazy Well I show you what that's like, And then I wave goodbye as you run for your life"
The chorus is where the singer explains to his/her partner how to provoke excitement (aspiring fires). He/she is saying that you have to get a little wild and work for it. It's not something you can achieve just by looking it up on google. You have to put some effort in to it (just like with starting a real fire - nice metaphor).
"A little advice for aspiring fires You'll get put out if you don't get a little wild Try again, try again, get it right, you don't got to Google it just to lose you mind You're not gettin' it right, ayee ayee yeah"
He/she than continue to emphasize how being crazy is not something to achieve by sitting around watching TV all day:
"Maybe, you're watching too much TV, (ooh) Because crazy in the box, is everything that crazy's not"
The bridge is where the singer has finely "lost his mind" and is now loose and spontaneous like a fire, and he/she is not just talking about it like their partner is:
"I'm losing my mind again Now a fires a friend Not to try to feel you're crazy"
@pseudonymrod Interesting interpretation. I disagree, I always thought it was about one of the people ignorantly wanting to see their partner's "crazy side" thinking they can handle it and that it will perhaps be interesting. I think here crazy is used quite literally and the speaker in the song actually is a bit off and has held it back or medicated it around their partner. Media's representation of insanity is sometimes romanticized. I think this is what the lines "Maybe, you're watching too much TV, (ooh) Because crazy in the box, is everything that crazy's not" is referring to. Insanity is...

Media's representation of insanity is sometimes romanticized. I think this is what the lines "Maybe, you're watching too much TV, (ooh) Because crazy in the box, is everything that crazy's not" is referring to. Insanity is sometimes portrayed as exciting and dangerous, alluring for its taboo, when in reality there's a lot more than that to it. So the speaker is understandably pretty hesitant to comply when their partner requests to seem their insanity with all the misconceptions about it. "Baby, you wanna see me crazy Well I show you what that's like, And then I wave goodbye as you run for your life" The speaker is afraid that once their partner sees their crazy, they'll realize it's nothing they imagined. Not exciting, just scary. The speaker's afraid of losing another person to fear, and is struggling with their partner's ignorant request.
@samanthajp, I like your interpretation but how would you interpret the chorus though?
