VERSE 1
We're treading water on the wreckage of your burning little Hollywood
You dirty sunset whores, ya know they did all they could
Well they got the warning, and ya know they saw the signs
Well we give, give some more, and they take saying mine-mine-mine
We'll stay afloat on the silicon baby just a you and me
And I hope you all drown when you fall into the fucking sea
So take your penicillin and poisoned wine
CHORUS 1
Gonna burn gonna burn, gonna burn burn burn
Gonna burn gonna burn, watch your city burn
Wanna watch every worm, just a take their turn
Gonna burn, gonna burn, watch the lady burn
VERSE 2
I wanna be the wolf the that huffing at your pretty pink door
You lock all your windows, I can slither up thru the floor,
Cuz I am the Devil, and you Jesus just called in sick
I'm praying for the Locust Dance, Oh plague do come quick, quick, quick
Build a house with the pieces of your empire washed ashore
I'll survive on the blood that you spill on the floor
So take your numbers and get in line
Sucking all the fame, but your lipstick still looks fine
CHORUS 2
Gonna burn gonna burn, wanna burn burn burn
Gonna burn gonna burn, watch your city burn
I wanna watch every worm, just a take their turn
Gonna burn, wanna burn, watch the lady burn
Gonna burn gonna burn, wanna burn burn burn
Gonna burn gonna burn, watch your city burn
I wanna watch every worm, just a take their turn
Gonna burn, wanna burn, watch the lady burn
VERSE 3
There is too much sin, and blood on the avenue of stars
And it smells like sex, and failure and hairspray in this bar
You're trying too hard honey, cuz you had me with your open legs
The horseman rides at dawn, get on your knees and beg
