brimstone and fire

cyndi lauper

i met a woman at the laundry mat

she left her sock in my dryer

i met a woman in a yellow cap

it said brimstone and fire

i said is this luck? with just a glance

she smiled

and i thought

is this a sign?

from above or below?. oh no. brimstone. brimstone and fire. the next week at the cinema

she pur her hand on my shoulder

she almost kissed me walking home

and i didn't even scold her

then i said where is this leading with just a heavy sigh

i quickened my pace and she was following

as if her heart would never tire

brimstone and fire

brimstone and fire. now we have dinner every saturday

i make spaghetti

she brings cake

i make spaghetti with tomato sauce

because that's all i can make

and when she lights the candles

i think

here we go. but it's so pleasant after all

and i say very low

don't forget to light the fire

brimstone and fire. brimstone and fire. brimstone and fire.
