of spontaneous combustion, woe-is-me.

(Play Verse)

Not two days ago I was having a look in a book,
and I saw a picture of a guy fried up above his knees.
I guess I can relate, cause lately I've been thinking of combustication
as a welcomed vacation from the burdens of the planet Earth,
like gravity, hypocrisy and the perils of being in 3-D,
and thinking so much differently.

(Play Chorus)

So pardon me while I burst into flames.
I've had enough of the world and its people's mindless games.
So pardon me while I burn and rise above the flames.
Pardon me, pardon me... I'll never be the same.
