Are you in pain?
Do they drive you insane?
Are you burning with rage?
Are you hungry for change?
 
Then get out of the frying pan
And into the fire—with me.

Are they frying your brain?
Are you feeling deranged?
Are you hungry for change?
Are you burning with rage?

Then get out of the frying pan
And into the fire—with me.

Every scorching morning,
 Trapped in the same old place,
A curving wall of cast iron
Searing your face.
You're never gonna get out of here,
You're never gonna get anywhere,
Unless you do something
Like coil on yourself and spring
Out of the frying pan.
