Pardon Me
Pardon Me While I burst
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 definate 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.
Now 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, hypocresy, and the perils of being in 3-D...
But thinking so much differently.
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.
Never be the sameÂ… yeah
Pardon me while I burst into flames
Pardon meÂ… Pardon me Â… Pardon 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.
Pardon meÂ…
Never be the sameÂ… yeah.
