Lyrics
In the schoolyard, on your own, watchin’ the others play
You try to join the game, they push you away, and call you horrible names
You don’t cry ‘cos deep inside you feel your wisdom grow
Feels like fire, feels like fire
Feels like fire in your body heart mind and soul
All grown up now, you don’t run with the crowd, you have a lotta wisdom to give
They’re not listening, not learning, they keep on doing their own thing
You don’t mind ‘cos deep inside you feel your wisdom grow
Feels like fire, feels like fire
Feels like fire in your body heart mind and soul
Feels like fire, a red-hot burning fire
Feels like fire, a red-hot burning fire
You just keep swimming, never give in, oh no, not you
You’re not very fast, in a race you come last, others make fun of you
You don’t mind ‘cos deep inside you feel the fire grow
Feels like fire, feels like fire
Feels like fire in your body heart mind and soul
Now you run your own race at your own pace, give much more than you take
You make progress with your personal best, but others only see your mistakes
You don’t mind ‘cos deep inside you feel the fire grow
Feels like fire, feels like fire
Feels like fire in your body heart mind and soul
