lyrics

I've got pepper in my boots
My feet are sneezing
Every sneeze another mile
And even though it's freezing
My toes will burn
If I don't stop running
See the holes in the ground?
That's my fire feet in their hot boots
Fire Feet – Hot Boots

I've got pepper in my boots
And bubbles in my brain
My brain is too slow
Can't think without champaign
Soon it will burst
If I don't stop thinking
Better keep on running
With my fire feet / Hot boots

Maybe I should stay
Such an easy thing to do
Only one more day
And I'd spend it with you

But I'm leaving
Everywhere I go I'm always leaving
Before I even got here I'm already leaving

I've got bubbles in my brain
And honey in my heart
My heart is so sticky
It will never fall apart
But when it melts
It starts dripping
Dripping on my feet
F..F..F fire feet / Hot boots

My sticky heart is dripping
In my peppery boots
My brain can't remember
Where I've left my roots
I'm searching here, I'm searching there
I gotta find them while running everywhere
F..F..F fire feet / Hot boots

Maybe I should stay
Such an easy thing to do
Only one more day
And I'd spend it with you
But no, I'm leaving
Everywhere I go I'm always leaving
Before I even got here I'm already leaving
