Lyrics

[Verse 1] I never meant to trip the minefield hidden here in paradise (Put stink weed in the bouquet) I never meant to fire a lethal weapon or to terrorize (Put poison in the buffet) [Chorus] If played my role as diplomat You knew it wasn't just an act I couldn't stand to stand in back A faded little wallflower I've maybe taken too much on Naivete and youth is gone But at least the juice is still turned on I'm dancing on a live wire I've summoned up a thunder cloud But I always meant to do you proud Still, certain things are not allowed Like setting off a wildfire Wildfire [Interlude] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Uh huh Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Uh huh [Verse 2] I never meant to cut my tender fingers on your angel hair (Put sawdust in the gas tank) I never meant to hide tacks in the cushion of your mercy chair (Make a brother walk the gangplank) [Chorus] If played my role as diplomat You knew it wasn't just an act I couldn't stand to stand in back A faded little wallflower I've maybe taken too much on Naivete and youth is gone But at least the juice is still turned on I'm dancing on a live wire I've summoned up a thunder cloud But I always meant to do you proud Still, certain things are not allowed Like setting off a wildfire Wildfire [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] I never meant to do you wrong (I never meant to trip the minefield hidden here in paradise) I never meant to cause anybody's harm (I never meant to fire a lethal weapon or to terrorize) I never meant to cause you any pain (I never meant to cut my tender fingers on your angel hair) I never meant to bring you any shame (I never meant to hide tacks in the cushion of your mercy chair) [Chorus] If played my role as diplomat You knew it wasn't just an act I couldn't stand to stand in back A faded little wallflower I've maybe taken too much on Naivete and youth is gone But at least the juice is still turned on I'm dancing on a live wire I've summoned up a thunder cloud But I always meant to do you proud Still, certain things are not allowed Like setting off a wildfire Wildfire [Chorus] If played my role as diplomat You knew it wasn't just an act I couldn't stand to stand in back A faded little wallflower I've maybe taken too much on Naivete and youth is gone But at least the juice is still turned on I'm dancing on a live wire I've summoned up a thunder cloud But I always meant to do you proud Still, certain things are not allowed Like setting off a wildfire
