Chorus.
Oh, its all going up in ashes,
Shouldn't have stole those matches,
Oh, its all going off around here,
Its all going up in ashes,
Shouldn't have stole those matches,
Its all going off around here.
Verse 1
Oh, oh what a good idea,
You know you'll feel much free'er,
A chance to be somebody.
Oh, shouldn't have been so near,
If only we'd just thought clearly,
They'd have hung nobody.
Chorus
Oh, its all going up in ashes,
Shouldn't have stole those matches,
Oh, its all going off around here,
Its all going up in ashes,
Shouldn't have stole those matches,
Its all going off around here.
Verse 2
Soon, it was local news,
Aerosol's and porter loos,
Can kill somebody.
Shit, someone call 999,
We'll soon be doing time,
Unless we blame somebody.
Chorus
Oh, its all going up in ashes,
Shouldn't have stole those matches,
Oh, its all going off around here,
Its all going up in ashes,
Shouldn't have stole those matches,
Its all going off around here.
Intsrumental.
Oh, oh, oh, oh......
Chorus
Oh, its all going up in ashes,
Shouldn't have stole those matches,
Oh, its all going off around here,
Its all going up in ashes,
Shouldn't have stole those matches,
Its all going off around here.
Outro.
Ba, ba, ba.......
