Smells like something's burning The kitchen is on fire I didn't leave the oven on, you calling me a liar? Flames are in the attic Everything is charred All my waterlogged shit is laying in the yard
Smells like something's burning Smelled that way before Something's always flaming in this neighborhood I'm sure Everything changes so fast you never know Only ashes remain of everything I own
Smells like something's burning Smells like burning shit Something's always stinking now that I think of it It stinks to be you my dear Stinks to be me too Gonna burn your playhouse down if it's the last thing I do People always seem to destroy what they love Them big ole brains steer us wrong when push comes to shove Now I'm standing here with the matches all lit Hoping that my sheepish grin will get me out of it
Smells like something's burning The red-hot coals of hell Give them something to talk about The stories they will tell About how he was a good man and how far he fell But you'll know I'm coming by the smell
Don't call the Fire Department This town's been burned down Flashing embers burning through a burning wall of sound Brothers like to fight but I won't be found Ashes blowing in the breeze No one else around
