Flamin' Shoe |
All these rats are swimmin' for the land |
They ain’t goin' down with the captain |
Same old rats that took a bite outa' me |
Darling way back when the word was mutiny |
Nothin' but a raft to carry me and my girl |
They just wrote us off |
Till we turned up blazing torches on their docks |
One night we’re gonna' burn 'em down |
And the same goes for those who underestimate |
Said the love of my life was just another blind date |
You know I hardly had a single word edgewise |
Before the true believers started to drop like flies |
But I don’t see 'em out parading arm in arm |
I see 'em dodging cars in harm’s way |
You think with so many words of wisdom they could fill up a library |
But one night I’d have to burn it down |
One night I’d have to burn it down |
I can think of at least fourteen ways to disappear |
No I don’t need to be told when it’s plain as day I’m in the minority here |
But why must all the horrible people have all the cheer |
Blue green grass is standing somewhere still |
I know it is even if it’s over landfill |
I got to think that there’s still a tiny patch |
To raise some hens and watch those chickens hatch |
Browsing through the almanac I watch the stars |
That plummet now and then |
And I’m waiting for a flamin' shoe to drop on us again |
One night gonna burn it down |
One night we’re gonna burn it down |
