Lyrics
Pass The Kerosene
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This towns like a ship that was built to sink
Taking on water while they pass around drinks
Too busy to notice the whole structures unsound
Wearing their delusion like a dislodged crown
The band's on the deck playing boldly on
Waters hell on a cello, but you've got to finish the song
Our song is over, baby, I'm through with this crew
When the horse has broken both legs, well you know what to do
Chop, chop cherie
Pass the kerosene
The engines are turning and we're picking up steam
Tonight's the night
We'll set the town alight
The towers will tumble and we'll dance by the light
Its them or us if you know what I mean
And here's to us, baby
Now pass the kerosene
The carnivals marked the games are all rigged
The banker, the broker, the mayor the pigs
Not so much a town as a broken merry-go-round
She keeps on twisting and drilling herself right into the ground
We're all on the ride, and we're running out of time
I'm stopping it here its the end of my line
You can stay on the tracks she's going straight to hell
I'll kiss you goodbye, I'll be ringing the bell
Chop, chop, cherie
Pass the kerosene
The engines are turning and they're picking up steam
Tonight's the night
We'll set the town alight
The towers will tumble and we'll dance by the light
Theres only one way out when you've seen what I've seen
So here's to us, baby
Now pass the kerosene
