Burning Down The House

Watch out, you might get what you're after

Cool babies, strange but not a stranger

I'm an ordinary guy

Burning down the house

Hold tight wait 'til the party's over

Hold tight we're in for nasty weather

There has got to be a way

Burning down the house

Here's your ticket pack your bag

Time for jumpin' overboard, transportation is here

Close enough but not too far

Maybe you know where you are, fightin' fire with fire

All wet, hey you might need a raincoat

Shakedown, dreams walking in broad daylight

Three hundred sixty five degrees

Burning down the house

It was once upon a place

Sometimes I listen to myself, gonna come in first place

People on their way to work say

Baby what did you expect, gonna burst into flame, go ahead

My house is out of the ordinary

That's right don't want to hurt nobody

Some things sure can sweep me off my feet

Burning down the house

No visible means of support

And you have not seen nothing yet, every thing's stuck together

And I don't know what you expect

Staring into the TV set, fighting fire with fire
