Gasoline

Well I've seen you at Sarah's hardware store

Buying long matches, two feet or more so

You don't have to get too close to

The thing that might bite and burn you, dear

Well I've seen you at Mary's nursery

Picking up all her sticks and trees and

Hauling it home in Abby's trailer

Building a fire we would savor, dear

Oh you're so good with gasoline

I've never seen a lie burn so clean

Now that I've gone up in flames

You've found a new friend, ohhh

You said you worked for city safety,

Putting out fires when things get nasty and

Scooping up girls, young and helpless,

Laying then down in smoking dress oh dear

Well I've seen you drive the big red truck just

Barrel through 'cause it's all luck that

You don't get stopped at any red lights

There's no red tape in your sights oh dear

Oh you're so good with gasoline

I've never seen a lie burn so clean

Now that I've gone up in flames

You've found a new friend, ohhh

You've found a new friend

What happens when wind starts blowing?

Flame spreads and all are knowing of

House calls and late night fire fighting

And your face gets pasted on the

Front page as local con and

Lands on the front steps of the city

Well you thought fire could keep you sitting pretty
