Lyrics
Hey little girl, is your daddy home?
Asking if the girl's father is present.
Did he go away and leave you all alone?
Inquiring if the father left, leaving her alone.
Oh I got a bad desire oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Expressing intense and undesirable longing, feeling on fire.
Tell me now, baby, is he good to you?
Asking if her current partner treats her well.
Does he do to you the things that I do?
Questioning if the partner replicates the speaker's actions.
Oh, I can take you higher
Claiming the ability to elevate her experience.
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Reiterating the intense desire, feeling on fire.
Sometimes it's like someone took
Describing a painful sensation, possibly heartache.
A knife, baby, edgy and dull
Using a metaphor of a knife to depict emotional pain.
And cut a six-inch valley through
Imagining a significant and painful impact on the soul.
The middle of my skull soul
Portraying a deep emotional wound.
At night I wake up with
Detailing a restless night with intense emotions.
The sheets soaking wet
Describing physical effects of emotional turmoil.
And a freight train running through
Using a train metaphor to depict overwhelming thoughts.
The middle of my head
Highlighting the persistent impact on the mind.
Only you can cool my desire
Attributing the power to soothe the desire to a specific person.
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Repeating the intense desire, feeling on fire.
Oh oh oh, I'm on fire
Reiterating the intense desire, feeling on fire.
