We'll smoke like a couple in the 1960s Lit up like a pair of Woodstock hippies Looking down on a town where it don't seem wrong To be a bonfire blaze where it don't belong Meet me on the fire escape Meet me on the fire escape Don't let me wait I wanna start up this flame Meet me on the fire escape Meet me on the fire escape When the building's burning Baby, we're to blame Downtown bar bands bouncing off the brick walls Half pint lovers rolling out with their last calls The street lights down on Lafayette Ain't seen nothing like you and me yet Oh, meet me on the fire escape Meet me on the fire escape Don't let me wait I wanna start up this flame Meet me on the fire escape Meet me on the fire escape When the building's burning Baby, we're to blame Baby, we're to blame We'll smoke like a couple in the 1960s Up all night like New York City Oh, meet me on the fire escape Meet me on the fire escape Don't let me wait I wanna start up this flame Meet me on the fire escape Meet me on the fire escape When the building's burning Baby, we're to blame
