(We All Have To) Burn Something - Big D And The Kids Table

I’m all set, see I’m set straight

I got the whole thing and, yeah it’s great

Life’s just running around and sayin' 'Hi!'

And I don’t have to worry, no

Cause I read people, yeah… no

God’s taking notes on me

Well, things are off course just a little bit

Maybe it’s me., nah, that’s shit

They’re gettin' worried about me

Well slow slow down, or so I’m told

I’m digging a circle around a hole

Let’s play 'who won’t breath'

Aaw, we all gotta burn something

Yeah, we all gotta burn something

See, we’re all, we’re all just burning something

Yeah, we all gotta burn something

Well, she had a boyfriend so i’m told

Played a dumb sport, did the drama show

Her parents screamed 'on your knees'

Trapped to bond every day’s like never

I know I know things should get better

Ah, nah, not another bad week

But boy boyfriend, yeah, he cheated

Something about her being mistreated

In her eyes she was only twenty percent there

And little by little by little

She lost her interest little by little

At an age, young age, she had to burn something

Aaw, we all gotta burn something

Yeah, we all gotta burn something

See, we’re all, we’re all just burning something

Yeah, we all gotta burn something

So stop me while I’m tired.

(3x)

Go on and stop me while I’m tired

He dug this girl from Tokyo

He wished he like the radio

He said 'maybe one day I’ll put some crap up there too'

See learning is never what we expect

Kinda like the way they met

Overrun by a change those years can steal

And now he puts too many empty frames

In his lonely apartment he goes insane

From his life of constant action to now solitude

He said 'Power's too common, don’t you think, these days?'

I’d rather go back to my old ways

I’d rather go back to my simple ways

Aaw, see we all gotta burn something

Yeah, we all gotta burn something

See, we’re all, we’re all just burning something

Yeah, we all gotta burn something

'Would you boys like to ride my elevator?'

- 'Sounds like a cue for a song!'
