Fire

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

Smells like something's burning
