Lyrics The Proclaimers

The Proclaimers

(I'm Gonna) Burn Your Playhouse Down

I've got an achin' in my heart

Arson on my mind

I'm gonna burn your playhouse down

I've got a badly broken heart

And I've had it from the start

You're giving me the run around

Well, if you play with fire

It's sure to burn, known this all of my life

Go on, be on your way, I've had my say

Well, honey, I'm through with you for life

You'll find there's one in every yard

And I'm getting mighty tired

I'm gonna burn your playhouse down

I've got an achin' in my heart

Arson on my mind

I'm gonna burn your playhouse down

I've got a badly broken heart

And I've had it from the start

You're giving me the run around

Well, don't pretend that this is the end

'Cause this time we're really through

While you were runnin' 'round, burning up the town

Well, I set my trap for you

I've got an achin' in my heart

Arson on my mind

I'm gonna burn your playhouse down
