If my brother was dreaming
Or my father was selfish
Would I be a big man
Or a boy who was helpless?
If my mum was a judge
Would I know what's right?
Would I bruise my knuckles in the firing line?

If I was born in seventies and sung about pain
Would I start a band with Kurt Cobain?
If I was blessed with good looks and brought up right
Would you wanna take me home tonight?

But I'm on fire tonight
Yeah, I'm on fire tonight
Yeah, I'm feeling fucking lucky
And the odds are with me
Yeah, I'm on fire tonight

Sometimes people grow up in war
Not knowing what the adults are fighting for
If I was born wrong place, wrong time
I'd be thinking holy shit, Jesus Christ

And there's a girl in the bathroom talking to death
Well, she wanted one last drag of a cigarette
Oh, if that were me in another life
Well, I wouldn't be on this stage tonight

But I'm on fire tonight
Yeah, I'm on fire tonight
Yeah, I'm feeling fucking lucky
And the odds are with me
Yeah, I'm on fire tonight

I'm going to show two fingers to the boy I was
I kick myself for how sad I got
But I'm here to stay for these blue skies
Whoa, I cross my heart and hope to die

But I'm on fire tonight
Yeah, I'm on fire tonight
Yeah, I'm feeling fucking lucky
And the odds are with me
Yeah, I'm on fire tonight
Yeah, I'm feeling fucking lucky
And the odds are with me
Yeah, I'm on fire tonight, oh
