lyrics

5/14/22
They feast like hogs, we work like dogs,
but our conscience still is clean.
Keepin' up and screenin' frauds
who don't say what they mean.

Their penny pinchin', corner cuttin'
is right down to a grind.
But thank God Friday's come at last
before we lose our minds!

So...Fire it up! Let's go have a little fun
We can do just what we like and stop having to run
Fire it up! Bring a healthy appetite
Dine or dance or rock n' roll- anything is fine 2 night!

Fire it up!!! ...and feelin' good is good enough!

Meditation and contemplation
help us make ends meet.
But we're alive and kickin' jive
when some drop dead from the heat.

We're so lucky that we can rock
new ways to move our feet.
What goes around still comes around
It's still a 2-way street.

So... Fire it up! Let's go have a little fun
We can do just what we like; it's our time in the sun.
Fire it up! Bring a healthy appetite.
Dine or dance or rock n' roll - it's gonna be just dy-no-mite!

Fire it Up!!! .... and feelin' good is good enough!

Those politicians and statisticians
will never bring us down
Life's too short with lots of gems
so let's go out on the town!

And even if our backs are sore
or eyes are burned with strain,
I believe God put us here
to board that party train!

So... fire it up! Let's go have a little fun
We can do just what we like; no more under the gun
Fire it up! Bring a healthy appetite
Dine or dance or rock n' roll - in the crowd or outta site.

Fire it up! Bring a healthy appetite
Dine or dance or rock n' roll - Life's an apple; take a bite!

Fire it Up! Bring a healthy appetite
Dine or dance or rock n' roll- we'll take the wrongs and make 'em right!

Fire it up!

Now, we don't need perfection, friend
or some high-minded fluff.
Sarge Elias said it best:
"Feelin' Good is good enough!"
