Burn the House Down

歌詞

I met a sketchy little woman And she walked a crooked line She took a page from the bible Turnin' water into wine She talked about a spirit Said she had a crystal ball Even spoke with the deviel Made a telephone call With her hocus pokus oil and brews Everything she ID was frontpage news The people all came on a saturday night We'll run her outa town And if she puts up a fight Then we'll burn the house down Burn the house down Burn the house down And throw away the key So the bishop takes his queen Across a checkboard square Took a rose from her garden And a lock from her hair He talked some mumbo jumbo 'bout the moon and stars Said he's walkin' on the water When he's drivin' his car Another saturday night and the newspapers read The holyman died he was smokin' in bed Burn the house down Burn the house down And throw away the key Burn the house down Burn it into the ground And throw away the key So when you're sleepin' all alone and there's a knock on your door And you're on your knees prayin' 'cause your like is a war Say a hail mary as runnin' out a town And thank the lord you're living As they burn your house down Burn the house down Burn the house down, down, down And throw away the key Burn the house down Burn it to the ground And throw away the key
