Lyrics

Oh lazy dynamite

Oh lazy dynamite

Oh lazy dynamite

Oh lazy dynamite


Won't you come out tonight

When the time is right

Oh why do you fight that feeling in your heart

Don't you know that inside

There's a love you can't hide

So why do you fight that feeling in your heart


Oh lazy dynamite (repeat 3 times)


Oh why do you fight that feeling in your heart

Don't you know that inside

There's a love you can't hide

So why do you fight the feeling in your heart


Oh lazy dynamite (repeat 3 times)
