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
