Burning Down the House

Watch out, you might get what you're after

Go baby, strange but not a stranger

I'm an ordinary guy

Burning down the house

Hold tight, wait till 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 to far

Maybe you know where you are

Fightin' fire with fire

All wet, hey, you might need a raincoat

Shake down, dreams walkin' in broad daylight

Three hundred sixty five degrees

Burning down the house

It was once a fun place, sometimes I listen to myself

Gonna come in first place

People on their way to work, baby, what did you expect?

Gonna burst into flame

Burning down the house

My house, sort of the ordinary

That's right, don't want to hurt nobody

Some things, sure can knock me off my feet

Burning down the house

No visible means of support

And you have not seen nothin' yet

Everythin's stuck together

I don't know what to expect, stare into the TV set

Fightin' fire with fire

Fightin' fire with fire

Fightin' fire with fire

Fightin' fire with fire

Fightin' fire with fire

Burning down the house
