The heat is on, but the power is out
You're fighting to get out of town
Cars will crash
And the streets they're filled with trash
It's got you wondering how long this blackout will last
It's got them looting in Times Square
Purse snatchings everywhere
City meter maid giving parking fines
Rats they bite your feet by the curbside
[Chorus:]
Let's set fire to the city
Cause the lights are out
Are you with me?
The subway trains they won't go
Air conditioners won't blow cold
You don't give a damn cause the beers gonna flow
Laughing cause they're scared down in Soho
[Chorus]
Let's set fire to the city
Cause the lights are out
Are you with me?Let's set fire to the city
Cause the lights are out
And you know that we'll burn this town
