Words :
They're going higher
Wind is whistling on the barbs
Your head's a hammer
Hang Wire x 3
(Meet you at the) Hang Wire
That man is a liar
The day is like a warm night
Salt rusts the cold line
Hang Wire x 3
(Meet you at the) Hang Wire
Every morning and every day
I'll bossanova with ya
If there were a fire
Can we scratch beneath it
Hang Wire x 3
(Meet you at the) Hang Wire
