Burning Down The House Songtext / Lyric

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 'till the party is 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 jumping overboard

The transportation is here

Close enough but not too far

Maybe you know where you are

Fighting 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 a place

Sometimes I listen to myself

Gonna come in first place

People on their way to work

But baby what did you expect

Gonna burst into flame



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

Everything's stuck together

I don't know what you expect

Starring into the TV set

Fighting fire with fire



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
