Burning

Burning
Burning
Burning
Burning

And in the midst of my da-doo-ran-rans
I slam the windows and padlock all the doors
To drown my worries in the kitchen sink
Don't worry what the neighbors think

The television always calms me down
Call up my flame and watch jazz till she comes round
Go through the motions, struggle by the fire
She plugs me in and then lights my fire

Burning (Again, again)
Burning
Burning
Burning

And at the office where I work or play
(Please hang up & try it again)
I'm taking heed to every single word they say
You know she's bottled up inside of me
Spray like a Pepsi when she sets me free

Burning (Dirtwad)
Burning
Burning
Burning
Burning like a

When I was a young boy
Growing up in Sherwood Forest
I wasn't even popular in my school
Now kiss my ass

Burning
(Hang up and try it again)

And in the midst of da-doo-ran-rans (Heya)
I slam the windows, I padlock all the doors (Heya)
To drown my worries in the kitchen sink
Don't worry what the neighbors think
Neighbors think
Don't give a shit about what the neighbors think 
Cause I'm

Burning
Burning like the
Burning
Burning like a

(I'm sorry)
(I'm really sorry)
(This one's reverb)
(Please hang up & try it again)
