Fire Escape Lyrics


Uh oh uh oh oh oh
Uh oh uh oh oh ohI met up with an acrobat
in Brooklyn or some place like thatWith life and taxis flying pass
we tore that dance hall downUh oh uh oh oh oh
Uh oh uh oh oh ohPocket change and subway cards
our big ideas filled empty barsWe might be from the moon or mars either way
I'm never going home
So lets hang an anchor from the sun
there's a million city lights
but you're number oneYou're the reason
I'm still opened on
just to see your face
we'll be going strong
with the vampires babyWe belong
we belong awakeSwinging from the fire escapeUh oh uh oh oh ohI was drinking from the wishing well some junkie metal-head hotelWhen we boarded the carousel
The roof was caving inUh oh uh oh oh oh
Uh oh uh oh oh oh
And on this stage

my ox blood friend
We're singing songs about the end
The bankers in lion's den
They're dropping lines
Like beggers in the snowUh oh uh oh oh oh
Uh oh uh oh oh ohSo lets hang an anchor from the sun
there's a million city lights
but you're number oneYou're the reason
I'm still opened on
just to see your face
we'll be going strong
with the vampires babyWe belong
we belong awakeSwinging from the fire escape
Uh oh uh oh oh ohSwinging from the fire escape
Uh oh uh oh oh ohSwinging from the fire escapeWalking home
Your hand in mine
Tattoos on the river line
The morning birds are taking flight
Either way I thought that you should knowYou're my number oneYou're the reason
I'm still up at dawn
just to see your face
we'll be going strong
with the vampires babyWe belong
we belong awakeYour're my number oneYou're the reason
I'm still up at dawn
just to see your face
we'll be going strong
with the vampires babyWe belong
We belong awakeSwinging from the fire escape
Uh oh uh oh oh ohSwinging from the fire escape
Uh oh uh oh oh ohSwinging from the fire escape
Uh oh uh oh oh ohSwinging from the fire escape
Uh oh uh oh oh oh

Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness is the third musical project by Andrew McMahon, formerly of punk-rock outfits Something Corporate and Jack's Mannequin. McMahon announced the moniker in a blog post in July 2014, stating, "as I embark on yet another musical adventure, I will be traveling with my band to many of those same stages, this time as “Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness”. I suppose my wilderness is mostly an abstract one. Since putting Jack’s behind me, I have forced myself into strange spaces seeking new stimulus..."
