Lyric discussion by SuitBoy 

Cover art for Plan B lyrics by Dexys Midnight Runners

More brilliant typical Kevin Rowlands. Combining his his conviction in the rightness and purity of his (soul) vision - the burning - , and his urging of a partner to accompany him, with his insecurity and paranoia - It starts off just joking..... Reference to another classic soul record too, Bill Wither's 'Lean on Me'
