Fire In The Jungle

Mary's on the main line headed down a dead end street
Over on the corner, candy man sells his treats
She hands him every dime, he says he'd never leave her cold
Takes all her money, now he wants to take her soul

There's a fire in the heart of the jungle
And it's helter skelter, nothing but a free-for-all
There's a fire in the heart of the jungle
If it gets too hot, forty days of rain must fall

Frankie's on the front line fighting for his right to live
He's given everything, now there's nothing left to give
His country called his name to do the dirty work of war
And now he's fighting for a job, they don't call his name no more

There's a fire in the heart of the jungle
And it's helter skelter, nothing but a free-for-all
There's a fire in the heart of the jungle
If it gets too hot, forty days of rain must fall

Billy's in the bread line with nothing but his soldier pay
The rescue mission wants to wash all his sins away
He used to talk to God working on the family farm
But the tax man took it, took it from his two strong arms

There's a fire in the heart of the jungle
And it's helter skelter, nothing but a free-for-all
There's a fire in the heart of the jungle
If it gets too hot, forty days of rain must fall

There's a fire in the heart of the jungle
And it's helter skelter, nothing but a free-for-all
There's a fire in the heart of the jungle
There's a fire in the heart of the jungle
There's a fire in the heart of the jungle
There's a fire in the heart of the jungle
There's a fire in the heart of the jungle
There's a fire
