Things blow up around me
It's the story of my life
Helicopters, buses and buildings
I fear to face what each day brings

 Things blow up, I don't know why
They're here a moment, gone the next
A warehouse was my best friend's home
He was safe while on his own

Things blow up, there is no cause
My life is full of fireworks
It even happened to my truck
What can I blame if not my luck?

Things blow up, I can't help it
Most aren't even volatile
Lifts should stop, not get bomb threats
The constant fear is growing quite flat

Things blow up around me
I know this all too well
I don't know why I am surprised
A book can blow up too.
