  • I was riding
    Riding on my bike
    Me with my friend
    We're so alike

    Am I all alone
    She said all we
    Have is this
    We just had to stop
    And share a kiss

    Am I all alone
    One hot minute and I'm in it come and get it
    One hot minute and I'm in it come and get it
    One hot minute and I'm in it come and get it

    If I chase it I might waste it, come and spit it

    Am I all alone
    Am I all alone

    Sitting in the fire
    Get along and have some fun
    Floating to be higher
    Maybe I'm your special one
    Silent testifier
    Breathe the moon and eat the sun
    Sitting in the fire

    Close your eyes and click your heels
    Can you believe how good it feels

    Am I all alone
    One hot minute and I'm in it come and get it
    One hot minute and I'm in it come and get it
    One hot minute and I'm in it come and get it
    If I chase it I might waste it come and spit it

    Am I all alone
    Am I all alone

    Sitting in the fire
    Get along and have some fun
    Floating to be higher
    Maybe I'm your special one
    Silent testifier
    Breathe the moon and eat the sun
    Sitting in the fire

    Say goodbye to where you got it now
    Pay your father, pay your twenty, take a bow
    Say goodbye to where you buy you got it now
    Pay your mamma, pay your father take a bow
    Say goodbye to where you buy you got it now
    Pay your father, pay your twenty, take a bow

    Three pounds of love inside my skull
    A million more lives it's never dull
    Just a few times spun, spun around the sun
    A couple more or less and then we're done

    Sitting in the fire, I get along and have some fun
    Floating to be higher, oh, maybe I'm your special one
    Silent testifier
    I'll breathe the moon and eat the sun
    Sitting in the fire Writer/s: Anthony Kiedis, Chad Smith, David Michael Navarro, Michael Balzary
