Watch out, you might get what you're after
Cool babies, strange but not a stranger
I'm an ordinary guy
Burning down the house
Hold tight, 'til the party's over
Hold tight, we're in for nasty weather
There has got to be a way
Burning down the house
Here's your ticket, pack your bags, time for jumpin' overboard
Everything's stuck together
Well, I don't know what you expect staring into the TV set
Fighting fire with fire
All wet, you might need a raincoat
Shakedown, dreams walking in broad daylight
Three hundred sixty five degrees
Burning down the house
Burning down the house
My house is out of the ordinary
That's right, I don't want to hurt nobody
Some things sure can sweep me off my feet
Burning down the house
It was once upon a place, I would listen to myself
Gonna come in first place
People on their way to work
Now, baby, what did you except?
Gonna burst into flames
Burning down the house
