Pardon me while I burst...
A decade ago I never thought I would be,
At twenty three, on the verge of spontaneous combustion
Woe is me
But I guess that it comes with the territory
An ominous landscape of never-ending calamity
I need you to hear, I need you to see,
that I have had all I can take
and exploding seems like a definite possibility to me
So pardon me while I burst into flames
I've had enough of the world, and its people's mindless games
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me
I'll never be the same
Not two days ago I was having a look in a book
And I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees
I said I can relate
'Cause lately I've been thinking of combustication as a welcome vacation from
The burdens of the planet earth
like gravity, hypocrisy, and the perils of being in 3-D...
And thinking so much differently
Pardon me while I burst into flames
I've had enough of the world, and its people's mindless games
Pardon me while I burn and rise above the flame
Pardon me, pardon me
I'll never be the same
Never be the same...
