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.
