[Verse 1]
I heard Tarzan outside playing on the Jungle Blues
I know 'cause I saw him shimmer in a Kenyan pool
Coming on in the vines with his leopard-skin loincloth cool
Bony Watusi fingers beating on the bark of a tree

[Chorus 1]
Now Tarzan and me, well, obviously we're like that
Me and Tarzan, yeah we get on like a house on fire
Like a house on fire

[Verse 2]
Look at cool Louise, she's the one with the knick-knack eyes
She's only 17 and she knows how to make boys fight
She'll slit you with her eyes and she'll slash you with her cut-back smile
She's as cruel as a pig but we love her like a house on fire

[Chorus 2]
Louise and me now obviously we're like that
Yes me and Louise, we'll make it like a house on fire
Like a house on fire

[Bridge]
Like a house on fire, like a house on fire
Like a house on fire, like a house on fire
[Verse 3]
I saw a raw white angel executing loop-de-loops in the sky
Drawing lazy spirals with his slipstream smoke as he silently passed us by
But his halo got too heavy so he hung it down around his waist
Doing halo hula-hoops, executing loop-de-loops takes a lot of skill and bad taste

[Chorus 3]
But the angel and me obviously we're like that
Me and the devil, we get it on like a house on fire
Like a house on fire, like a house on fire
Like a house on fire
