"If You Love Somebody, Set Them On Fire" lyrics
"If You Love Somebody, Set Them On Fire"
Know that it would be untrue
Know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
I didn't set your house on fire
But it's just the way I am
Have to take it for a fact
Life can really burn you up
When you're a pyromaniac
So...
If you love somebody
Better set them on fire
I went to your house last night
Dad called me the human torch
Got a little pissed at him
So I burned down your front porch
Now I feel a little better
About throwin' gas on your dad
But you know it's hard to quit
And besides he started it
I just bought a brand new lighter
And I just can't wait to use it
With a can a' kerosene it's lots a' fun
You can't refuse it
Oily rags are special things
You know to me they're diamond rings
Maybe we can have some fun
Maybe we can burn someone
So...
If you love somebody
Better set them on fire
Know that it would be untrue
Know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
I didn't set your dad on fire
If you love somebody
Better set them on fire
If you love somebody
Why not set them on fire?
If you love somebody
Better set them on fire
If you love somebody
Why not set them on fire?

Primus - "John The Fisherman" When he was young you'd not find him doing well in school
His mind would turn unto the waters
Always the focus of adolescent ridicule
He has no time for farmer's daughters
Alienated from the clique...
The Cramps - "I Was A Teenage Werewolf" I was a teenage werewolf
Braces on my fangs
I was a teenage werewolf
And no one even said thanks
And no one made me stop
I had a teen-land mind
I had to blow my top
And under teen full moon
No one...
Pavement - "Cut Your Hair" Darling don't you go and cut your hair
Do you think it's gonna make him change?
I'm just a boy with a new haircut
And that's a pretty nice haircut
Charge it like a puzzle, hitmen wearing muzzles...
Sonic Youth - "Superstar" Long ago
And oh so far away
I fell in love with you
Before the second show
Your guitar
It sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really there
It's just the radio
Don't you remember you told me you...
Jeff Rosenstock - "Nausea" Held in a bong hit, sitting in a
Hot tub in south Wisconsin. I feel
Amazing when I'm all alone
Switching between porn and Robocop
Turned off my cell phone, drank a bottle
Of wine and read a Cometbus...
