The B-52s

The B-52s, originally presented as the B-52's (with an apostrophe, was corrected for grammar in 2008), are an American new wave band formed in Athens, Georgia, in 1976. The original lineup consisted of Fred Schneider (vocals, percussion), Kate Pierson (vocals, keyboards, synth bass), Cindy Wilson (vocals, percussion), Ricky Wilson (guitar), and Keith Strickland (drums, guitar, keyboards). Ricky Wilson died of AIDS-related illness in 1985, and Strickland switched from drums to lead guitar. The band has added various members for albums and live performances. The B-52s have had many hits, including "Rock Lobster", "Planet Claire", "Party Out of Bounds", "Private Idaho", "Whammy Kiss", "Summer of Love", "Wig", "Love Shack", "Roam" and "(Meet) The Flintstones".

On the horizon, the landscape's burning red.
Bushfire.  Smoke in your eyes, smoke in your eyes.
If you feel something, that makes you warm all over,
If you got a fire and you can't put it out, got a bushfire.

Rolling through a field of molten flowers;
Burning in a field of molten flowers.
There's a bushfire, there's a bushfire burning, yeah.

Bushfire! Bushfire! Bushfire!

My mind's been going places without me lately.
I need your arms to take me down, take me to the ground.
But I hold back! Get away from the heat.
Hold back! In my field of vision.
Hold back! Baby burning, fire.

Fire in a field of molten flowers,
Fire in a field of molten flowers.
There's a bushfire burning, yeah.
You better hold back! Hold back!

Bushfire! Bushfire! Bushfire!

Well I'm movin' to the beat of a big bushfire.
I'm dancin' to the beat of a big bushfire,
And the flames are warm and getting brighter.

Well everybody loves to dance around the heat and fire
Oh, lightnin' strike twice.
Hey everybody, bask in the afterglow.  Bushfire!
Naked light shining over my bed, been lying here too long.
I need your arms to take me down, take me to the ground.

But I hold back.  Get away from the heat!
Hold back! In my field of vision.
Hold back! I see smoke, smoke in your eyes.

Bushfire! Bushfire! Bushfire!
The landscape's burning, red hot!
