- Hang_Fire abstract ""Hang Fire" is a song by rock and roll band The Rolling Stones off their 1981 album Tattoo You.Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, "Hang Fire" is a fast-paced, up-tempo surfer style rock and roll track, which belies the happy beat with sharp, satirical lyrics directed squarely at England's economic decline through the 1970s.The song is a bleak look at English society at the time, where labour unrest was common and high taxes prevented growth. The lyrics parody the English economy, lamenting an unemployed working class Englishman who would rather bet on the horses than try to marry into the upper class, the only way to get ahead in English society.The song is one of the few times the band wrote an overtly political song, and it is notable that it was never released as a single in England, even though the band was touring Europe during the single's North American release. The lyrical irony and commentary on English society harkens back to some of the group's more socially contentious songs of the sixties like "Mother's Little Helper", "19th Nervous Breakdown" and "Street Fighting Man".Richards was asked about the track in a 1981 Rolling Stone magazine interview where he admits the track relates to England and the "ugly politicians" who had caused the country to decline when the "money got tight".The title expression "hang fire" (by formal definition) means to do nothing, to delay, wait, hold back, or hesitate.But in more casual, slang use, "hang fire" means to "chill, relax, kick back, take it easy, or act lazy"—as in "Hey man, let's hang fire later tonight.""Hang Fire" was first written and recorded during the Some Girls sessions in Paris. Released as the third single from Tattoo You, the song became a radio hit in the US, where it reached No. 20 on the singles chart. The song was played heavily on the Stones' tours of 1981 and 1982, but has been played scarcely since. Its B-side, "Neighbours", would become an airplay hit and a video was also made for the song.".
