Lyrics Out of the Frying Pan (And Into the Fire) - Jim Steinman
It's
only
two
o'clock
and
the
temperature's
beginning
to
soar
And
all
around
the
city
you
see
the
walking
wounded
and
the
living
dead
It's
never
been
this
hot
and
I've
never
been
so
bored
And
breathing
is
just
no
fun
anymore
Then
I
saw
you
like
a
summer
dream
And
you're
the
answer
to
every
prayer
that
I
ever
said
I
saw
you
like
a
summer
dream
And
you're
the
answer
to
every
prayer
that
I
ever
said
You
can
feel
the
pulse
of
the
pavement
racing
like
a
runaway
horse
The
subways
are
sizzling
and
the
skin
of
the
streets
is
gleaming
with
sweat
I've
seen
you
sitting
on
the
steps
outside
And
you
were
looking
so
restless
and
reckless
and
lost
I
think
it's
time
for
you
to
come
inside
I'll
be
waiting
here
with
something
that
you'll
never
forget
I
think
it's
time
for
you
to
come
inside
I'll
be
waiting
here
with
something
that
you'll
never
forget
Come
on,
come
on
and
there'll
be
no
turning
back
You
were
only
killing
time
and
it'll
kill
you
right
back
Come
on,
come
on,
it's
time
to
burn
up
the
fuse
You
got
nothing
to
do
and
even
less
to
lose
You
got
nothing
to
do
and
even
less
to
lose
So
wander
down
to
the
ancient
hallway,
taking
the
stairs
only
one
at
a
time
Follow
the
sound
of
my
heartbeat
now
I'm
in
the
room
at
the
top,
you're
at
the
end
of
the
line
So
open
the
door
and
lay
down
on
the
bed,
the
sun
is
just
a
ball
of
desireAnd
I
wanna
take
you
out
of
the
frying
pan
(and
into
the
fire)
Out
of
the
frying
pan
(and
into
the
fire)
Out
of
the
frying
pan
and
into
the
fireAnd
I
wanna
take
you
out
of
the
frying
pan
(and
into
the
fire)
Out
of
the
frying
pan
(and
into
the
fire)
Out
of
the
frying
pan
and
into
the
fireAnd
into
the
fire,
fire,
fire,
and
into
the
fire,
fire,
fire
And
into
the
fire,
fire,
fire,
and
into
the
fire
It's
only
two
o'clock
and
the
temperature's
beginning
to
soar
And
all
around
the
city
you
see
the
walking
wounded
and
the
living
dead
It's
never
been
this
hot
and
I've
never
been
so
bored
And
breathing
is
just
no
fun
anymore
Then
I
saw
you
like
a
summer
dream
And
you're
the
answer
to
every
prayer
that
I
ever
said
I
saw
you
like
a
summer
dream
And
you're
the
answer
to
every
prayer
that
I
ever
saidchorusAnd
into
the,
and
into
the,
and
into
the
And
into
the
fire,
fire,
fire,
and
into
the
fire,
fire,
fire
And
into
the
fire,
fire,
fire,
and
into
the
fire
